 Should be On Every Teacher's Bookshelf November 17, 2008
As a teacher this is my bible- meant it to be 5 stars...A fabulous resource for classroom management. It teaches teachers how to set boundaries in a loving and logical way. Children learn to take responsibility for their behavior in this kind of environment.Children want to know where their boundaries are and when you are consistent and apply them gently the outcome is a self-controlled child. Also must- reading for parents Parenting With Love And Logic (Updated and Expanded Edition)and Discipline With Love and Logic Resource Guide.
Great book for teachers! August 30, 2008
I am a teacher and always feel discipline is one of the toughest issues to overcome. This book gives great, real-life examples of how you can handle discipline situations with pre-schoolers to high-schoolers. It also gives great ideas on preventing discipline issues to begin with. It's a must-read for any teacher!
 Great approach to classroom discipline August 6, 2008
This book was recommended to me by a colleague. "Teaching . . . " empowers you to make decisions that are best for you and your students. The recommendations by the authors show how being in a "thinking state" allows you to offer choices to help students make good decisions regarding their behavior. I have been frustrated and exhausted trying to devise consequences which are appropriate. This method puts it back in the student's lap to develop the appropriate behavior. Read it once to get the overall ideas, then read it again to further your understanding.

 Useful Book July 29, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I found the first few chapters of this book very useful for my teaching practice but I never finished it. The truth is it started to get too indirect with the illustrations - the paedagogical links were not clear. And generally the book slowed up as it progressed from easy reading to something else.
