Summary

This comprehensive book provides teachers with practical strategies in managing classroom behavior based on theories of human behavior. It also provides a functional approach to classroom management and is based on practical strategies organized around specific issues teachers might encounter. Classroom Management: A Proactive Approach is based on three basic principles-classrooms should be learning communities, many behaviors can be prevented, and teacher interventions should promote positive change in classroom behavior.General K-12 Teachers and Special Educators.
