A great collection of skills along with their criteria and a method for achieving them. At appropriate points, clearly written reviews introduce the skills. The best succinct understandable description of the standards that I have read. This book will enable teachers not only to improve their delivery of the Common Core State Standards but do so with the finishing touches that will polish their performance.

The text is comprehensive and will serve as an asset for the most experienced teachers as well as new teachers.
