Editorial Reviews
Deborah Meier, McArthur Fellow, Principal, Central Park East Secondary School, New York, NY
Teaching Children to Care abounds with the best sort of recipes and anecdotes. There is never a moment of doubt about the credibility of the settings or the possibility of translating these ideas into one's own settings. It's rare that this kind of attention to classroom management sounds so respectful to kids and compatible with a reflective and intellectually-focused classroom!

When I finished it, I lay awake trying to imagine how it could be translated into work with adolescents at Central Park East Secondary School. I was that excited!

Maurice R. Sykes, Director, Early Childhood Programs, Washington DC Public Schools
I believe this book is a major breakthrough in the field of education...It provides a theoretical framework for elementary teaching and specific guidelines and techniques to put that theory into practice...It has profound implications for all teachers and systems, but especially for urban education. It shows how to organize classrooms, develop appropriate curricula, and most importantly, develop social competence...This book is what educators across the country are looking for.
