Developing Character for Classroom Success

I found this book to be a wonderful, practical resource for middle and high school teachers who wish to build character into their curricular area. Charlie Abourjilie's strategies promote and model core values of respect, responsibility, fairness, trustworthiness, and caring. As he explained in his book, students respond to these strategies and achieve at higher rates in a classroom where such ideas are used. I've recommended this book to several colleagues and hope to see more of this type of material. I believe that it could be helpful to teachers looking for ways to connect with more of their students and promote character in their classrooms. I trust that Charlie's next book will cover the more broad topic of character development throughout the school building.
