{"product_id":"square-peg-isbn-9781401324278","title":"Square Peg","description":"In the seventh grade, Todd Rose was suspended-not for the first time-for throwing six stink bombs at the blackboard, where his art teacher stood with his back to the class. At eighteen, he was a high school dropout, stocking shelves at a department store for $4.25 an hour. Today, Rose is a faculty member at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.\u003ci\u003eSquare Peg\u003c\/i\u003e illuminates the struggles of millions of bright young children -- and their frustrated parents and teachers--who are stuck in a one-size-fits-all school system that fails to approach the student as an individual. Rose shares his own incredible journey from troubled childhood to Harvard, seamlessly integrating cutting-edge research in neuroscience and psychology along with advances in the field of education, to ultimately provide a roadmap for parents and teachers of kids who are the casualties of America's antiquated school system. With a distinguished blend of humor, humility, and practical advice for nurturing children who are a poor fit in conventional schools, \u003ci\u003eSquare Peg\u003c\/i\u003e is a game-changing manifesto that provides groundbreaking insight into how we can get the most out of all the students in our classrooms, and why today's dropouts could be tomorrow's innovators.","brand":"Grand Central Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44893681844453,"sku":"NP9781401324278","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/square-peg-isbn-9781401324278","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
