…access part one! I did a bunch of research and put together a long list of books that may be interesting to you as well. Many of the books are targeted at a high/middle school level, but most have younger versions once you click on the link. I will be splitting this list into two different posts and this is the second.

…h School Books (sorry middle and elementary levels – HS is where I know my books so I cannot recommend useful texts – read on for other great buys though!) At work, I have a large bookshelf – and it is full. One reason is that when I was a graduate student – I made it a point to purchase a used book or two from Amazon each semester I took classes. This has allowed me to develop a library of different resources that I have grown after being able to…

…the tool is how action oriented it is. You can create categories and then label them as “decision” “action” “info” etc. This lets people reviewing minutes later have a much more streamlined approach to find out what needs to happen. From that, you can also assign specific people to tasks and give them a deadline all within the same line.
