Caring Teacher's Guide

This book arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I would never have guessed it was a "used book". I would highly recommend this book for new teachers and for any teacher who is struggling with classroom management.

Text book for College

I had to use this book for a college course and thought it was the easiest book to read and understand. I have even used it for the basis of a day care continuing education conference. Great book! Wonderfully written. Use it for problem solving in your classroom and implementing classroom meetings. It is great resource FOR TEACHERS to use to problem solve the behavior issues THEY have with children. Not just for teachers to teach students how to figure out problems. There is one section about figuring out the function of behaviors, which most teachers forget when dealing with challenging children.
