The Educators Guide to Preventing and Solving Discipline Problems
by Mark & Christine Boynton, ASCD (November 30, 2005) | ISBN-10: 1416602372 | Pages: 177 | 24.8mb
What can you do to keep students from fighting in the hallways and acting out in class? When they break the rules, what disciplinary actions can you take to helpstudents behave themselves in the future? You'll find the
answers to these questions and many more in this comprehensive, research-based guide to developing a schoolwide discipline system. Preventing disciplineproblems usually requires less energy than coping with problems
after they occur, and a day without discipline problems is certainly more enjoyable for teachers and students alike! With this in mind, Mark and Christine Boynton present a wide variety of prevention strategies that any
teacher can use, including advice about their relative appropriateness in different settings and circumstances. Of course, even the most successful preventive measures sometimes can't stop a student from disrupting a lesson
or picking on classmates. In those situations, it is crucial to know which interventions are effective and which are counterproductive. This book will help you learn the most appropriate reactions to (and consequences for)
student misbehavior, as well as specific strategies for handling oppositional defiant disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and anger management issues in students. You'll also find ideas for exploring your school's
philosophical beliefs concerning discipline, promoting positive teacher-student relations, and establishing clearly defined parameters of acceptable classroom behavior. Whether you're a K-12 teacher or a school principal,
The Educator's Guide to Preventing and Solving DisciplineProblems will change the way you approach discipline in your school-for the better! Mark and Christine Boynton, both former teachers and principals, are
currently educational consultants specializing in discipline issues. They live in Gig Harbor, Washington.
