This guide sets forth a method by which teachers can do two critical things:
1. Intervene quickly and effecively at the moment of misbehavior
2. Encourage students over the long haul by building their self-esteem and, ultimately, gaining their cooperation.

Interesting and well organized, the book also explores what motivates students to misbehave, ways to avoid and defuse confrontatons, ways to reinforce desirable behavior; and strategies for disciplining cooperatively with students, parents, and other school personnel.

I am a new teacher, but my brother recommened this book for my difficult kids. He has been a special ed teacher for 20 years, and is an excellent teacher. This book speaks clearly and knows my students well!
