The third edition of this guide behavioral management in the classroom has been expanded to include new insights that Curwin and A. Mendler have gleaned over the past few years, and to introduce fresh ideas from B. Mendler (who is new to the enterprise). All three authors have with experience in child psychology, behavioral management and special education and offer practical advice for educators on how to build relationships with students, maintain control in the classroom and intervene with behavioral issues in a dignified way. This book contains both real-life examples and excerpts of actual teacher-student dialogues that have been proven effective when it comes to issues such as bullying, abusive or inappropriate language and chronically misbehaving children.
