About this title

Synopsis

A sense of humor is essential for effective teaching!

As educators, we often take ourselves a bit too seriously, so veteran educator and illustrator Aaron Bacall offers a little perspective with these lighthearted cartoons. Whether used as overheads for staff development meetings or as an individual break in a busy day, this collection of whimsical glimpses at teaching will provide a moment to laugh and add a little levity―and poignancy―to your workday.

Intended to amuse, inspire, and reveal the simple truths that surround us, these illustrations are ideal for:

• Staff training days
• Conference presentations
• Classroom lectures
• Community meetings
• Internal communications

…and they will continue reminding us that we can laugh at almost anything!
