`As a mentor this book has provided me with a checklist of points to look for when observing students, ideas for targets for which they may aspire plus a good resource to enable them to build up a repertoire of good practice. I will be lending this book to my current student so that she may acquire some strategies to deal with quite a lively class - a euphemism used by teachers to indicate a challenging bunch of kids!' - Nurturing Potential

Topics covered include teacher business, classroom business, classroom atmosphere, transitioning, rewards, consequences, and working with diverse student/family populations. The clear, easy to implement, five-step strategies will help teachers plan an effective management programme that will help insure on-going success in the classroom. The authors have created a user-friendly guide, with ideas that can and should be changed or modified to fit different classroom situations.
