Description

On the New Edition of Building Classroom Discipline

“I feel the book is the best overview of Classroom Management for an entry-level teacher. It has a strong theoretical basis and provides students with a sound overview of classroom management. . . . [E]ach chapter is easy to follow and . . . [t]he case examples and the application examples strengthen each chapter. . . . A true gem of a book!”

–Aubrey Fine, CA Poly University

[Two things] I like about the new edition that the [previous edition did] not have [are] the chapter on self-assessment, as well as [the] inclusion of the Be the Teacher Scenarios in all the chapters.  My students have enjoyed the Be the Teacher practice exercises a lot, and I am glad that with the new edition they will have even more opportunities to practice.”

–Madalina Tanase, University of North Florida

“Not only does Charles provide the essence of each model, but he focuses on how to execute the model in a classroom.  The step-by-step approach is exceptional.”

–Deborah Burris, Southern Illinios University – Carbondale

Charles is the leading classroom management models text.  It covers and applies the most important management and discipline approaches, from Redl, Wattenberg, Skinner, and Glasser through Jones, Kagan, Cook, and others).
