ties that rule

A cute, lighthearted book and a great read aloud for younger students. The principal gives each child a different tie and exchanges roles and duties such as a teacher or janitor, etc for a day. Of course, the principal becomes a student for the day and when the school board members arrive for a visit, they are not happy with what is going on, but somehow the 'new' principal has a very different idea and her subtle message comes across at the end. A great book to explore different views and perspectives of people and schools in general.

Mr. Tanen's Ties Rule-They Really Do!

There is no better threesome of books for a principal to read to elementary students than the Mr. Tanen's books. Mr. Tanen's Ties Rule is a fantastic 3rd book which my children (both at school and home) adored. Every child wonders what it is like to have an important job in a school and they will be filled with ideas of how to run school following reading this book. Maryann Cocca-Leffler's illustrations add to the enjoyment of this wonderful book. This one is a must-have both for school and at home!
