Leon Spreyer draws upon his 27 years of teaching experience to provide student teachers and new teachers with practical information that isn't always taught in teacher education courses. He includes games, book recommendations, specific lesson plans and straightforward, humorous advice on all aspects of teaching. The book covers 82 essential topics (including cooperative learning, communicating with parents, staff meetings, testing, portfolios, and many more) in a reader-friendly style, with easy-to-follow lists, examples, and suggested resources.

Industry Reviews

"I re-read this book every summer to help me maintain a balanced perspective as I plan for a new school year."

-- Gary Tsuruda, Math teacher

"Teaching Is an Art can help new teachers adjust more smoothly into the education profession and can provide new ideas and insights for veteran teachers."

-- John Thompson, Assistant Principal

Where was this book when I was teaching? I'm going to show or tell every teacher I know about this book. I wish Leon Spreyer could win teacher of the millennium award (and I mean this new millennium not the last one)!"

-- Barbara Piano

"Spreyer's experiences with students and colleagues form the core of the book. It includes humor, quotations, poetry, samples, and examples for practitioners to try within their classrooms."

-- Harriett Arnold

"[It] is a practical and informative guide which is accessibly arranged . . . a very highly recommended supplemental resource for art educators of all experience, skill, and grade levels."

-- Midwest Book Review's Library Bookwatch, March 2003
