One less book for the bonfire, but it's a textbook and I just can't give it anymore stars.

A textbook that's actually not a waste of time. There was a lot of good stuff in this one, and I will be keeping it to use as reference.

This textbook (and course) should be taught to everyone who wants to work with children. I already have an outline for the day that I finally walk into a classroom of my own.
Not only that, I now know how to incorporate the students' ideas towards creating a positive and productive classroom without either being either too lenient or too strict.
It takes a lot of planning and forethought, but the ideas, concepts, and examples offered in this text can help anyone create or adapt a game plan to match their situation.

I can see using this textbook as a guide going forward.

This was a textbook for my class and it so far has been the best one assigned. I liked how each chapter started out with a summary of research and then had strategies to use in the classroom.

[Sara · Rating 2 out of 5]

Some interesting research and suggestions, but way too dense and wordy, with a somewhat supercilious and preachy tone. There's a lot of "teachers are doing it wrong" bs in here that really turned me off.

This book contains great strategies for effective classroom management. I walked away from it with some extra tools in my toolbelt, so to speak.
