If common sense prevailed, there would be fewer academic, social and behavior problems within our schools today. This does not appear to be the case as uncommon sense, apparently, is in great demand. This "uncommon sense" approach is pro-active and focuses on the success of all children in school. Beliefs and mechanisms regarding the historical schooling of children, along with some post 9/11 issues, are challenged with new ideas, thoughts and questions. Presented in a diary-like format, this book invites the reader into an intimate exploration of personal and professional growth - all with the best interests of children in mind and heart.
"Clearly and supportively written, this book offers a wealth of exciting new opportunities for improvement in our schools. Whether you are a teacher, a parent or someone who works in a school, this innovative book will gently nudge you into thinking differently. Uncommon Sense is uncommonly good."
- Ellen Tanner Marsh, New York Times Bestselling Author.
Uncommon Sense Children and School eBook David M Willson
Policies and regulations require our schools to develop parent/school compacts that promise a cooperative relationship based on trust. This trust between home and school can be strained due to challenging student behaviors and needs. In many cases the parent/school compact must be more than "I promise to get my child to school ready to learn" or "I believe all students can learn." How then do parents and schools deliver the promises of such compacts?David Wilson's Uncommon Sense: Children & School is one great answer for developing real parent/school relationships. I strongly recommend this book for school staff training and parent workshops as a part of a school's parent involvement policy. Because of the self-reflective design that does not shy away from the most challenging topics, Wilson's Uncommon Sense has the power to redefine broadly stated parent involvement policies into targeted parent and school involvement practice. I only want to know one more thing. Is David Wilson available for professional development conferences?

Uncommon Sense Children and School eBook David M Willson Reviews
This book has great information and is a well organized approach to each segment of education and working with children. David writes with knowledge, experience, understanding, and compassion for each part/person involved in the whole team for children. His book should be read (owned) by the entire school and support service team members, and by parents.
This book is a valuable tool for those of us that are new to working with Children or those of us that have had many years as professionals or parents and caregivers. David Willson brings his vast experience to breathe some life back into the idea of team to work toward helping children succeed in school. He offers an introspective approach to looking at your own philosophy, thoughts, motivations and limitations to move forward in doing what is right for kids.
David Willson's Uncommon Sense Children and School is a wonderful resource for people who work with children. The author takes on a number of challenging issues in education and demonstrates how parents and professionals can best work together in prioritizing the needs of children. This is truly an insightful and thought provoking work. Mr. Willson's commitment and dedication to improving outcomes for children is evident from the first page to the last!
David Willson has done a great job of relaying information to teams in a tone that is positive and understandable in this book. Regardless of your background in education, this book can become a usable resource for answers to questions that are tough questions.
The notes pages where the reader can make their own notes and write down thoughts about tough topics is an excellent idea because it allows the reader complete privacy to deal with struggles they've experienced as well as successes around issues that are pertinent to their lives.
David Willson believes that children come first, and he is a strong advocate for children with special needs. His book is a strong appeal for child advocates and school systems to work togther for long-term solutions. This is not a "root from the sidelines" book. It is formatted in such a way so that you can jump in and become part of the creative and effective process.
Mr. Willson writes with great clarity about difficult topics. This insightful and interactive book forces the reader to examine their own ideas and preconceived notions about working with students and families. Thinking through topics systematically can be helpful when trying to make a team more efficient and effective for students. This book helps to stop the finger pointing and blaming we often see within the system and encourages individuals to begin by examining their own role as a member of the team. This book is a fantastic resource for families, advocates, teachers, and any member of the school team.
A highly effective resource to help anybody working with children to maximize their effect on each child they work with. How? By becoming more efficient as a TEAM member. It's all about holding others and yourself accountable, helping oneself and others to stay focused on the child, not shy away from difficult situations or "drop the ball", clear communication, and "stepping up to the plate". A comprehensive guide of how to be the best we can be. We already know the answers, but teamwork and communication can become stressful and confusing. Ever been frustrated by other team members or a difficult situation involving a child? This could help you to understand how to become active part of the solution and set the example, no matter how small or large your role.
