Richard Lodish, winner of the 1993 National Distinguished Principal Award, shows how you can use laughter, joy, and good-old-fashioned humor as tension relievers and teaching tools at your school. Drawing from his experience as a student, teacher, and principal, he has created a collection of stories that will give you an entire year's worth of inspiration. Here's a practical look at how humor can help brighten the day and lighten the load for everyone at your school and in your classrooms.
