Recommended Resources
The following list of resources, both books
and videos, will be updated periodically. We share
many of these resources with teachers who attend our workshops. If
you have a resource that you think we should be sharing
with our larger Private Eye family, please send us an email about
it. Don't forget to include the author, publisher,
publishing date and title if its a book; the title and
production company or distributor if its a video.
And thank you for your recommendations!

Eye.)
