Instructional Leadership in Student-Focused Coaching
Creating Effective Systems to Cultivate
Student Success
By Daryl Michel, Dawn Brookhart
Aligned with Implementation Science and developed by two internationally known consultants, this is the practical guidebook educational leaders need to build their knowledge of coaching and master their critical role in the coaching system as instructional leaders.
Administrators, supervisors, and other leaders will gain expert guidance, actionable strategies, purposeful exercises, and engaging activities for supporting the transformative work of coaches.
As more states mandate coaching as part of their reform efforts, this thought-provoking book will help a wide variety of educational leaders grow sustainable coaching programs that bridge the research-to -practice gap and cultivate student success.
Instructional leaders will strengthen their skills and take confident next steps with the reflection prompts, application exercises, and action items in each chapter.
It emphasizes that leadership isn’t defined by a title anyone with insight, commitment, and a student-focused mindset can serve in a coaching role and make a lasting impact.

The A-Z of International School Leadership
By Simon Watson
The A-Z of International School Leadership is a stimulating collection of sharp insights and creative perspectives drawing on the authors global experiences, organised around the 26 letters of the English alphabet.
"The hindrance to development and innovation that follows from ploughing the single furrow is self-evident. The best schools are open and outward thinking, ready to critically accept ideas from around the world, even if these ideas emanate from people in countries other than their own. International schools are ideally placed to be at the forefront of innovation in education."

The A-Z of Trust Leadership
By Neil Blundell
The A-Z of Trust Leadership is a compelling handbook for those leading multi-academy trusts and school partnerships, organised around the 26 letters of the English alphabet.
"Trusts have been around for a while, and now approximately half of England’s schools have joined the movement. While we make sense of this systemic change and partially restructure what we have created, there is a need to learn from our mistakes, capture what has been achieved, and tell the story for those who are not aware of the fundamental change that has taken place across our schools."
- Neil Blundell
The A-Z of School Improvement
By Tim Coulson
The A - Z of School Improvement is an authoritative 'can-do' guide to all aspects of improving schools, organised around the 26 letters of the English alphabet. School improvement is about getting every detail right. The serious school leader pays attention to every aspect of school life and focuses on improving it and aiming for excellence. One of the marks of the successful school leader is forensic attention to detail.
They will look closely and carefully at every aspect of a particular issue, analyse data, and only agree on interpretations after much consideration. While much of a school leader's work is relational, motivational, and relentless, bringing a forensic mindset to bear ensures that actions towards improvement are focused and thoughtful.

Mathematics Tasks for the Thinking Classroom, Grades 6-12
By Peter Liljedahl, Kyle Webb, Laura Wheeler
Building upon the blockbuster success of Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Peter Liljedahl has joined forces with co-author Kyle Webb to bring the Building Thinking Classrooms (BTC) framework to life in this new book, Mathematics Tasks for the Thinking Classroom, Grades 6-12.
But this book is so much more than simply a collection of good thinking tasks. It delves deeper into the implementation of the 14 practices from the BTC framework by updating the practices with the newest research and focusing on the practice through the lens of rich math tasks that address specific mathematical learning outcomes or standards.
Across the 20 non-curricular tasks and 30 curricular tasks used as models, this book:
* Helps you choose tasks to fit your particular math standards, goals, and the competencies you want your students to build
* Walks you through all the steps and scripts to launch, facilitate, and consolidate each task
* Shares examples of possible student solutions along with hints you might offer to help their thinking along.
* Offers tasks for consolidation, example notes to my future forgetful self, and mild, medium, and spicy check-yourunderstanding questions (CYUs) for every thin sliced sequence of curricular tasks
* Imparts reflections from the authors on each task
The book closes with specific guidance on how to find more tasks or craft your own non-curricular and curricular tasks, along with answers to educators’ frequently asked questions. It includes access to a companion website that includes downloadables and a task template for creating your own tasks.
Whether you are new to BTC or a seasoned user, Mathematics Tasks for the Thinking Classroom, Grades 6-12 will help teachers, coaches, and specialists transform traditional math classrooms into dynamic and thought-provoking learning spaces. Mathematics Tasks for the Thinking Classroom, Grades K5 is also available to create district-wide thinking classrooms!

Of Many Minds
Neurodiversity and Mental Health Among University Faculty and Staff
By Rebecca Pope-Ruark, Lee Skallerup Bessette, Katie Rose Guest Pryal
In the competitive and achievement-driven world of higher education, the mental health and neurodiversity of faculty and staff often remain overlooked or misunderstood. While institutions increasingly prioritize student mental health, the challenges faced by educators are frequently ignored, leaving them to navigate a culture that values excellence at almost any cost.
In Of Many Minds, editors Rebecca Pope-Ruark and Lee Skallerup Bessette give voice to the experiences of faculty and staff dealing with anxiety, depression, and neurodivergence amid a culture of stigma and exclusion.
This essay collection provides a platform for faculty and staff to share their stories and critically examine the culture of mental health in US higher education. Contributions normalize conversations about mental health and neurodiversity while offering insights to transform the academy into a more inclusive, supportive space.
The essays combine personal accounts with actionable critiques, addressing topics like workplace stigma, ableism, and systemic barriers to seeking treatment. With contributions from a diverse group of educators and advocates, Of Many Minds challenges the status quo and fosters empathy for those living with neurodiversity in academia.

Hey Awesome
A
book about anxiety, courage, and being already awesome

Ups and Downs
A book for kids about big feelings
By Karen Young, Norvile Dovidonyte
All feelings are important - the magical, the messy, and the in-between. Sometimes though, big feelings can have us behaving in ways that aren’t so, let’s say... shiny. This happens to all of us. The younger people understand how and why, the more they can build the capacity to feel their feelings and manage them in positive ways. ‘Ups and Downs’ draw on Polyvagal Theory, a widely accepted neuroscientific theory, to support young people to understand why they feel and do as they do, and how to do differently when they need to. Driving brains and bodies isn’t easy! It takes time, experience, and the right information, so let’s give them that.
