Influential Books in Education

Some months ago there was a post that was entitled "Read or Get Left Behind". As I reread the post and pondered read books in recent months it dawned on me that there are a few that will forever leave a mark on my teaching, leading and learning. Here are my top five:

Good to Great

Curriculum 21

The Art and Science of Teaching

Teach Like a Champion

How to Grade for Learning

The list is short and certainly misses some classics in our profession. These books guide the work that inspire our innovation. What books are you reading that keep you innovating?
