Overview
Classroom Management: A Survival Guide is aimed at both new and practising teachers. While based on research in the areas of effective teaching and classroom management, it is presented in a highly readable style, using the analogy of a sailor preparing for, and setting out on a journey. It offers practical strategies aimed at helping teachers understand the individual needs of their students, create a positive learning environment, develop rules and routines, use effective teaching practices, and respond to disruptive behaviour in the classroom. It also provides guidelines for using out-of-class strategies to address extremely difficult behaviours, and for managing the stress that can accompany teaching students with widely varying needs.
- Gives students practical guidelines and specific strategies that they can use in the classroom.
