Overview

Chewing gum, dropping litter, swearing, late homework and disruptive behaviour in class are just a few of the issues that teachers have to face every day in the classroom. How you choose to respond to these incidents, however minor they may first seem, can have a dramatic impact on the overall quality of your lessons. There is no one answer to behaviour and classroom management as different strategies work depending on the lesson, the groups of students and even the time of day. This highly practical book guides you through the choices that you need to make when confronted with specific issues in your classroom. Dealing with the nitty gritty reality of behaviour management, it covers the common problems teachers encounter and provides a series of possible solutions and their likely outcomes. Placing you at the centre of the decision making process through a 'quest' format, it allows you to experiment with a range of options in a reflective and engaging manner to see which of your choices work and why others may not. The scenario based approach not only lets you explore the various options available to you, but also enables you see the consequence of your actions. Written by an experienced teacher, this fun and interactive book is essential reading for trainee and newly qualified teachers that want to improve their behaviour management skills.
