Kids are capable of doing fantastic things! It's time for educators-teachers, administrators, parents, mentors, coaches-to think differently about how we prepare students and encourage them to grow as leaders. We can equip students with the tools and skills that will allow them to identify, take on, and solve real-world problems. In this title, award-winning educators offer a helpful primer on the importance of student leadership and how to incorporate training for it into education every day. Packed with practical advice and helpful strategies, this book is a vital addition to the shelves of K-12 educators, who will find not just a roadmap for training students as leaders but concrete examples of how to facilitate their growth and development in today's school environment. Throughout, the authors serve as helpful guides, explaining the benefits of leadership training while covering neglected topics, like the importance of discussing-and celebrating-leadership in the classroom and knowing when it's the right time to follow.
