If you are looking for concrete suggestions to help you teach the skills and work habits students need to reach high levels of performance on state and national standards, then this book is for you.

Ready-to-use ideas can assist you in creating a community of learners.

The approach to classroom management detailed in this book proactively addresses discipline and behavior problems.
This book is a must for both beginning teachers and experienced teachers who are looking for success in managing the increasing challenging academic work load and addressing the needs of the diverse school population.
