Overview
This book will give teachers in today's schools another option when traditional behavioral and academic plans fail. Even the most difficult adolescent who is always ready for a confrontation can be tamed using this very different approach. Much more than just being "positive," this guide will give teachers of all grade levels new words to say and new strategies to use that change behaviors, attitudes and promote academic success.Synopsis
Emphasizing the positive, this guide offers teachers advice on handling students with behavior and performance problems. Family therapist and former junior high teacher Linda Metcalf describes techniques and strategies for creating a motivational atmosphere, preventing behavior problems, meeting with resistant parents, dealing with mental health issues, discipline, and crafting opportunities for improvement.
