FINALLY, it's here.....a realistic, practical, no non-sense book full of fresh, unique ideas to help "today's" teachers deal with disruptive students. Although the book has a "serious" tone, you will find it to be a very enjoyable read. It is sprinkled with poems, short stories, mottoes, affirmations, checklists, and valuable reproducibles. Learn about the Wandering Tattler, Bully Box, The Worry Wall, The Unteachables, Soothing Stones, and the Use of Mnemonics. Students will love the stories of "The Listening Skulls" and "Booker T. Washington's Most Valuable Lesson." The book ends with an in-depth description of the Back-Up unit which is a program based on a ten year study that helped one school decrease discipline problems by nearly 80%.Warning: A few teachers may find some of the strategies a bit extreme.....use your best judgement!
