"Based in sound theory and common sense, Serious Fun is an anthology full of practical ideas and strategies that will motivate even the most reluctant learner. Get started today, use these ideas to bring excitement to your classroom! Teachers will enjoy a serious fun classroom as much as their students."—John Hinton, President, Math Matters, Inc."This book has everything I would want to make learning enjoyable and enduring. When students have fun and are instructionally stimulated, they are self expressive critical thinkers open to new experiences. Our classrooms are transformed into powerfully engaging places where students learn 21st Century academic and social skills in a manner that is both enjoyable and enduring. This bountiful book of strategies teaches you how and is a 'must read' for all educators."—Colleen Eagan Zawadzki, retired secondary principal and international "Discipline with Dignity" trainer
