In his acclaimed book, Teach Like a Champion, Doug Lemov shared 49 techniques that are essential to the art of teaching.

In this Field Guide he shows how to implement, customize, and master those techniques in practice.

The activities are designed to help teachers reflect, self-assess, and discover what techniques are most valuable to them. Teachers may evaluate their comfort and confidence in using the 49 techniques, easily compare notes with fellow teachers, and maintain a record of progress. More importantly, teachers will be able to unlock the talent and skill waiting in their students, no matter how many previous classrooms, schools, or teachers have been unsuccessful.
