Learning from Behavior: How to Understand and Help Challenging Children in School

by James E. Levine

Book Overview

Levine shows us how to observe, question, and think about children's problem behaviors in school from the child's perspective so we can understand what is motivating children to act as they do before we intervene. Cases included in this book range from noncompliance and poor academic performance to disinhibition, suspected ADHD, PTSD, and injury-caused acting out.

classroom teacher's input

Informative, interesting and relevant to today's classrooms. Practical strategies that seem to support the RTI process of creating a behavior plan for students with the added support of teaching students HOW to be in control of their behavior. I can't wait to give it a try in my classroom and share this book with other teachers at my school.
