There are a lot of great principles and ideas to apply in the classroom here. The reflections and activities were definitely the highlight of this book. I also especially loved the chapter containing reflections from different teachers who employ stoicism in the classroom. However, I wanted the book to go a bit more in depth. Also, there were a lotttttt of typos everywhere, which could get a bit distracting at times.
