Change Leader
Learning to Do What Matters Most
Leadership expert Michael Fullen reveals
six core practices for todays leaders.
In his previous best-selling books, Michael Fullan
examined the concepts and processes of change.
Now in Change Leader, he turns his focus to the
core practices of leadership that are so vital for
leading in todays complex world. He reveals seven
core practices, all of which appear to be deceptively simple but actually get to the essence of what differenti-
ates a powerful leader from one who is merely competent: Practice Drives Theory Be Resolute Motivate
the Masses Collaborate to Compete Learn Confidently Know Your Impact Sustain Simplexity.
Fullan argues that powerful leaders have built bedrocks of credibility, have learned how to identify the few
things that matter most, and know how to leverage their skills in ways that benefit their entire organization.
Provides a much-needed leadership guide for todays turbulent climate
Written by an internationally acclaimed authority on organizational change
Includes illustrative examples from business, education, nonprofit, and government sectors.
Michael Fullan shows leaders how to eschew policies and strategies that focus on shallow and short-term goals and develop leadership skills
for long-term success.

The Six Secrets of Change
What the Best Leaders Do to Help Their
Organizations Survive and Thrive
The keys to success lie within every organization.
Fullan has an uncanny ability to produce what is needed at the
time it is needed. The six secrets are based in theory, grounded
in practice, powerful in their relationship to each other, and
described in ways that enable deep understanding. It is a refresh-
ing change from the surface lists of leadership and change ideas
that all too often permeate education and business literature.

Urban School Leadership
Tom Payzant
This important book provides compelling
examples of how ef fective leaders can have
hope, see progress, and achieve success
for all children in the schools and districts
they lead.Richard Riley, former U.S.
Secretary of Education
Tom Payzant was a leader in big-city
schools throughout his career, and he
understands the unique managerial,
instructional, and political tasks of this
role. Effectively combining research literature with practical lessons,
Urban School Leadership engages the reader with discussion ques-
tions and in-depth analysis of various leadership topics, such as
improving student achievement, working with unions, maintaining
and developing resources, and building community. Most impor-
tantly, it offers stories of real school leaders whose successes and
missteps reveal the inherent messiness of this difficult job.
TOM PAYZANT is a professor of practice at the Harvard Graduate
School of Education. Prior to that, he served as superintendent of the
Boston Public Schools from 1995 until his retirement in June of 2006.
Before coming to Boston, he was appointed by President Clinton to
serve as assistant secretary for Elementary and Secondary Education
with the U.S. Department of Education. Over the past decade he has
led a number of significant systemic reform efforts that have helped
narrow the achievement gap and increase student performance on
both state and national assessment exams. Dr. Payzant also consults,
trains, and speaks with school leaders across the nation.

Women and Educational Leadership
Women and Educational
Leadership
Margaret Grogan, Charol Shakeshaft
This groundbreaking book shows how
the qualities that characterize womens
approaches to leadership differ from
traditional approacheswhether the tra-
ditional leader is a woman or a man. The
authors reveal that women leaders tend to
bring an instructional focus to leadership,
include spiritual dimensions in their work,
and strive for balance between the personal and professional. In
addition, women leaders are more collaborative by nature and
demonstrate a commitment to social justice. The authors include
illustrative examples of leaders who have brought together diverse
groups to work toward a common goal.
This book will help the next generation fulfill the promise of a new
tradition of leadership.
MARGARET GROGAN is the dean of the School of Educational
Studies at Claremont Graduate University. Recognized by AASA in
2005 for her research on women in leadership, Dr. Grogan is widely
known as a leading expert on gender and educational leadership.

ership at Virginia Commonwealth University. She is an internationally

Leading School Turnaround
How Successful Leaders Transform
Low-Performing Schools
Kenneth Leithwood, Alma Harris, Tiiu Strauss
Leading School Turnaround examines turnaround leader-
ship and offers leaders tools to guide their schools to higher
levels of achievement. The authors present new evidence
from a series of studies conducted in the US, Canada, and
England. In 2007-2008 there were 1,900 public schools in
the US that were failingmeaning they hadnt made their adequate yearly
progress (AYP) under NCLB for at least five years. A recent study estimates
that the number of schools that miss the AYP mark will more than double to
5,000 schools in 2009-2010. Once given a failing grade, there are five options
for these schools: reopen as a charter, replace most of the staff, contract with
an outside agency to operate the school, turn the operation of the school over
to the state, or engage in restructuring. This last optionto undergo an extreme
restructuringis the best solution; and the biggest component of school turn-
around is an effective leadership team, which extends beyond the school prin-
cipal. With this landmark book, you get the tools you need to transform your
low-performing school.

Engaging Students
The Next Level of Working on the Work
Phillip C. Schlechty
By understanding and implementing the principles
so thoughtfully articulated in this book, schools can
become centers of highly engaged learnersand in
that endeavor find again the joy of teaching and learn-
ing.Johnny Veselka, executive director, Texas
Association of School Administrators
In Phillip Schlechtys best-selling book Working
on the Work, he outlined a motivational framework for improving student performance by improving
the quality of schools designed for students. Engaging Students offers a next-step resource in which
Schlechty incorporates what hes learned from the field and from the hundreds of workshops he and the
Schlechty Center staff have conducted since Working on the Work first was published.
This innovative and practical book is focused on helping teachers become increasingly successful in designing engaging work for their stu-
dents. Schlechty contends that rather than viewing schools as teaching platforms, schools must be viewed as learning platforms. Rather
than seeing schools as knowledge distribution systems, schools must be seen as knowledge work systems. Rather than defining teachers as
instructors, teachers must be defined as designers, leaders, and guides to instruction. Engaging Students also includes useful questionnaires
that will facilitate discussion, analysis, and action planning at both school and classroom levels.

Leading for Learning
How to Transform Schools
into Learning Organizations
Phillip C. Schlechty
How do schools compete with tele-
vision, computer games, and the
Internet to engage the hearts and
minds of their students?
Phillip Schlechty argues that we must
develop schools where innovation is
encouraged, and students are given
work that is truly rigorous, relevant,
and exciting. This book will provide educators with the framework,
tools, and processes to transform their schools from bureaucracies
into learning organizations. To make this transition, educators must
understand and move beyond some of the deeply ingrained and
negative conceptions of schooling that guide so much of their prac-
tice. They must take stock of how they and their organizations have
structured systems of power/authority, evaluation, and boundaries,
and figure out how to restructure systems in ways that encourage
sustaining innovation.

Renewal Coaching Fieldbook
Douglas B. Reeves, Elle Allison
Change has been easy to prescribe and nearly
impossible to sustain.
Renewal Coaching offers a new dimension in personal and organi-
zational performance based on exhaustive research and extensive
clinical practice by the authors. The Renewal Coaching approach
is a research-based, sustainable approach to individual and organi-
zational improvement that involves a disciplined and collaborative
sequence of information, experimentation, feedback, and support.
Renewal Coaching provides a series of personal assessments that will guide individuals and
teams through the seven stages of renewal. RecognitionFinding patterns of toxicity and
renewal; RealityConfronting change killers in work and life; ReciprocityCoaching in har-
mony; ResilienceCoaching through pain; RelationshipNurturing the personal elements
of coaching; ResonanceCoaching with emotional intelligence; RenewalCreating energy,
meaning, and freedom to sustain the Journey.
If you are already a coach, or a leader who uses a coaching perspective, then this frame-
work will help sustain the impact of your efforts. If you are a member of an organization that
is enduring initiative fatigue, then this frame-work will help focus your energy. And if you
are a person who has started change efforts, but has not been able to continue them over
the long term, then this frame-work will help you gain the insight, endurance, and moral
purpose to continue.
The Renewal Coaching Fieldbook contains cases, tips, and resources to deepen under-
standing of the Renewal Coaching approach.

Rethinking Teacher Supervision
and Evaluation
How to Work Smart, Build Collaboration,
and Close the Achievement Gap
Kim Marshall
Here is the right book at the right time for practitioners,
policymakers, and parents from an ex-principal who did in
his school exactly what the title says.Larry Cuban, pro-
fessor emeritus of education, Stanford University
Expert Kim Marshall shows how to break away from
the typical and often ineffective evaluation approaches
in which principals use infrequent classroom visits or
rely on standardized test scores to assess a teachers performance. Marshall pro-
poses a broader framework for supervision and evaluation that enlists teachers in
improving the performance of all students.
Emphasizing trust-building and teamwork, Marshalls innovative, four-part framework
shifts the focus from periodically evaluating teaching to continuously analyzing learn-
ing. This book offers school principals a guide for implementing Marshalls frame-
work and shows how to make frequent, informal classroom visits followed by candid
feedback to each teacher; work with teacher teams to plan thoughtful curriculum
units rather than focusing on individual lessons; get teachers as teams involved in
low-stakes analysis of interim assessment results to fine-tune their teaching and help
struggling students; and use compact rubrics for summative teacher evaluation.
This vital resource also includes extensive tools and advice for managing time as
well as ideas for using supervision and evaluation practices to foster teacher profes-
sional development.
KIM MARSHALL has served as teacher, principal, and district official in the Boston Public
Schools for 32 years. Marshall is now an independent professional development con-
sultant working with schools and districts nationally. Marshall also writes for educational
journals such as Education Week and Phi Delta Kapaan and publishes a weekly on-line
subscription newsletter, The Marshall Memo.

Michelle Rhee Takes on the
Nations Worst School District
Richard Whitmire
Hailed by Oprah as a warrior
woman for our times, reviled by
teachers unions as the enemy,
Michelle Rhee, outgoing chancel-
lor of Washington, DC, public
schools, has become the contro-
versial face of school reform. She
has appeared on the cover of
Time magazine and is featured as
a hero in the documentary Waiting for Superman. This is the
story of her journey from good-girl daughter of Korean immi-
grants to tough-minded political game-changer.
When Rhee first arrived in Washington, she found a school
district that had been so broken for so long that everyone
had long since given up. The book provides an inside view
of the union battles, the school closings, and contentious
community politics that have been the subject of intense
public interest and debatealong with a rare look at Rhees
upbringing and life before DC.
The Bee Eater includes an insert with photos from Rhees
personal and professional life, and an exit interview that
sheds light on what shes learned and where the future might
take her.
RICHARD WHITMIRE is a veteran of education reporting. He is
a former editorial writer for USA Today, immediate past-pres-
ident of the Education Writers Association, and author of the
book Why Boys Fail (2010).

Fighting for the Soul of Americas
Toughest High School
Alexander Russo
Russo weaves together fascinating anecdotes and lively
descriptions of the people and events that helped turn
Locke from a failing school to one of hope and surviv-
al.Randi Weingarten, president of the American
Federation of Teachers
Whats it like to try and turn around a broken school
without stripping it beyond all recognition? Its the
hardest work in educationdeceptively simple at
the beginning and increasingly difficult the deeper
you get into it. Its a trickle of halting, incremental successes totally incompatible
with Hollywoods instant results and individual heroes. And at times it seems like
everyone, not just the district and the union, wishes for failure.
Stray Dogs, Saints, and Saviors tells the real-life story of Locke High School.
Originally known for its excellence, Locke High became one of the toughest,
most dysfunctional schools in the nation. In 2007 the teachers bravely voted to
bring in an upstart charter school organization called Green Dot to try and restore
the Locke Saints past glory. Working in secrecy, the school principal, a small
group of teachers, and Green Dots charismatic founder, Steve Barr, convinced
Locke teachers to support a petition that would take the school away from the
Los Angeles Unified School District. The new Locke opened in the fall of 2008.
Offers an in-depth look at a school turnaround effort that garnered a
blizzard of publicity

How to Promote Engagement, Understanding, and Independence for All Learners

A proven program for enhancing students thinking and comprehension abilities.
Visible Thinking is a research-based approach to teaching thinking, begun at Harvards Project Zero, that

thinking routinessmall sets of questions or a short sequence of stepsas well as the documentation of
student thinking. Using this process thinking becomes visible as the students different viewpoints are
expressed, documented, discussed, and reflected upon.
Helps direct student thinking and structure classroom discussion
Can be applied with students at all grade levels and in all content areas
Includes easy-to-implement classroom strategies
When thinking is made visible, learning is inevitable. Making Thinking Visible invites the reader to craft a new definition of education and presents

Diploma Matters
A Field Guide for College

field book, readers will find a toolkit developed by The
Education Trust. The tools in the kit help school leaders and
teachers examine the current high school experience, and
then develop a detailed action plan to transform curriculum
so that their students are ready for college and work.

The Innovative University
Changing the DNA of Higher Education From the Inside Out
Clayton M. Christensen, Henry J. Eyring
This superbly documented book is a must read for anyone who cares about Americas universities and colleges and the invalu-
able role they play in our contemporary society. Henry Eyring and Clayton Christensen remind us of higher educations history
and thoughtfully examine the critical strands of its DNA that require re-engineering to insure survival and good health for our
richly diverse system. Perhaps the best feature of this volume is that it goes beyond analysis to of fer what is possible through mod-
els that are scalable, transferable, and responsive to the needs of learning, discovery, and engagement.Molly Corbett Broad,
president, American Council on Education
Written by Clayton Christensen, the father of the theory of disruptive innovation, and his colleague, Henry J. Eyring, The Innovative University
explores how and why universities must change to ensure future success.
The authors show how higher education can respond to the forces of disruptive innovation, and it offers a nuanced and hopeful analysis
of where the traditional university and its traditions have come from and how it needs to change for the future. Through an examination of
Harvard and BYU-Idaho as well as other stories of innovation in higher education, the authors decipher how universities can find innovative,
less costly ways of performing their uniquely valuable functions.

Change the flawed system that traps gifted children in misdiagnosis and misunderstanding.
Explores the link between giftedness, autism, and ADHD, and recommends changes to the flawed systems that
trap these gifted children in misdiagnosis and misunderstanding.
Children known as Twice Exceptional (or 2e) are kids who are gifted and who have a physical or mental
impairment. Often a childs disability masks his giftedness, causing educators and other adults to focus on
his weaknesses rather than developing his talents. In other cases, a childs giftedness can mask her disability,
meaning she wont receive the special education services that could help her manage and possibly overcome
her disability. This book is a call to action for parents and educators to rally for changes to the educational and
mental health systems that keep these children trapped.

Teaching Social Skills to Children with ADHD, LD, and Aspergers
Janet Z. Giler
Revised Edition
Heres an easy-to-follow program for parents and educators to teach kids with special needs the hidden rules
of social behavior. Unlike other social skills programs, this acclaimed approach teaches children to see them-
selves as others docovering everything from body language and being a good listener to dealing with teas-

bal language into friendly, bite-sized morsels that kids can understand and addresses the most common social
errors made by children with special needs. The author breaks the social skills training into 10 lessons that can
be taught as sequential building blocks and help children: understand friendships, become good listeners, use
conversational skills, understand the importance of body language, understand tone of voice, recognize friendly behavior, join a group or an
ongoing activity, deal with teasing, manage anger, and understand cell phone etiquette and the rules of cyberspace.

more. The book is filled with helpful information on ASD to aid teachers who have received little training on the
topic. Extremely practical, the book includes lesson plans, checklists, and sidebars with helpful advice.

Contains best practices for working with parents, which is the key to helping kids learn social skills

students wind up with too few choices,
locked in by what was decided for them by
a broken system. Weve been handing over
a diploma that holds an empty promise. In
this practical field book, readers will find a toolkit developed by The
Education Trust. The tools in the kit help school leaders and teach-
ers examine the current high school experience, and then develop
a detailed action plan to transform curriculum so that their students
are ready for college and work.

Joyful Reading
Differentiation and Enrichment for Successful Literacy Learning
Sally M. Reis
A schoolwide enrichment model for teaching reading.
Discover a reading program with proven effectiveness in improving motivation and engagement as well as achieve-
ment for a wide range of learners. This system focuses on high interest literature, choice, and critical thinking prac-
tices that result in students eager to read.
This book offers teachers a promising alternative to scripted reading programs. Introducing the Schoolwide
Enrichment Model for Reading (SEM-R), a model that has been tested in high poverty urban schools as well as in
affluent suburban schools, the book shows teachers how to implement a differentiated reading program that works
well with all students, high achievers and low achievers alike. Students are encouraged to read independently for a period of time each day
while the teacher conferences with students individually. Based on the premise that students do better when given a choice in what they read,
the SEM-R program places high importance on matching individual students with appropriately challenging texts along with opportunities to
engage in high-level thinking and inquiry activities related to their readings. The program enables students to become more motivated and
excited about reading, to develop the capacity for reading progressively challenging texts, and ultimately to perform better in reading fluency
and comprehension on standardized tests.
A DVD of classroom examples is also included.

Common Core Curriculum Maps in English Language Arts
Written by Teachers for Teachers
The first books to present specific guidance for teaching the Common Core State
Standards.
Forty-three states plus the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands have signed on to
adopt the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). The need for curriculum guides to assist
teachers in helping students meet these standards has become imperative. Created by teach-
ers, for teachers, the research-based curriculum maps in this book present a comprehensive,
coherent sequence of thematic units and sample lessons for teaching the skills outlined in the
CCSS for English language arts in grades K-5, 6-8, and 9-12. Teachers can use the maps to
plan their year and craft their own more detailed lesson plans.
Each grade is broken down into six units that include focus standards, suggested works,
sample activities and assessments, lesson plans, and more
The maps address every standard in the CCSS, yet are flexible and adaptable to accommo-
date diverse teaching styles.
Any teacher, school, or district that chooses to follow the Common Core maps can be confident
that they are adhering to the standards. The books will also include sample assessment rubrics,
examples of student work, and helpful graphic organizers. For more information, visit their
website: commoncore.org.

COMMON CORE is a nonprofit organization formed in 2007 to advocate for a content-rich
liberal arts education for all students in Americas K12 schools. They believe that a student
who graduates from high school without an understanding of culture, the arts, history, lit-
erature, civics, and language has been left behind. To improve education in America, they
promote programs, policies, and initiatives at the local, state, and federal levels that provide
students with challenging, rigorous instruction in the full range of liberal arts and sciences.
They also undertake research and projects, such as the Common Core Curriculum Mapping
Project, which aim to provide educators with tools that will help students to become strong
readers and learners. Despite the coincidence of name, Common Core and the Common
Core State Standards are not affiliated.

Reading Pathways
Simple Exercises to Improve
Reading Fluency
Fifth Edition
A unique, highly effective approach
to teaching reading, phonics, and

For reading exercises, I recommend
Reading Pathways. One of my daugh-
ters has had an extra struggle with
reading, and the book has helped make
a noticeable improvement for her. The
short stories it includes are so fun and
silly that it makes the daily lessons something to look forward to.
Jenefer Igarashi, senior editor, The Old Schoolhouse magazine
This proven successful method for improving fluency features read-
ing pyramids that start with one word and gradually build into short
phrases and then into complete sentences of increasing complexity.
Also included are mini-pyramid exercises where two words build
by syllables into multisyllable words, which are then used in a sen-
tence. The exercises in this book help beginning readers increase
eye span, strengthen eye tracking, build vocabulary, and develop
ease and fluency in reading. Progressively building up the amount
of text per line removes the fear and mystique of multisyllable
words, and helps students build the strong vocabulary so critical for
success in reading and writing.

The Vocabulary Teachers Book
of Lists
Replete with lists of words, books,
teaching strategies, and many other
useful tidbits of information related to
language and literacy, this book picks
up where Dr. Frys best-selling The
Reading Teachers Book of Lists leaves
off. Its primary focus is on vocabulary
improvement for reading and writing.
It contains a comprehensive section on
roots and word origins; extensive lists
of words used in science, psychology, and literature; and an entire
chapter on vocabulary teaching methods and options for curriculum
content. Other chapters include spelling, homophones, exonyms,
affixes, specialized subject area terms, and lists of commonly mis-
used wordseach one included in a sentence context.
Some lists may be appropriate for individual students as extra cred-
it, other lists will help ESL students to master English, and yet other
students will use these lists to prepare for college entrance exams.
