Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. I use methods from this book every day. ( ) Insightful, researched, practical, systematic, AND so funny to read. This is the classroom management book for teachers in the trenches. There's material in here that can be implemented immediately, as well as principles that prompt years of reflection and that may change one's philosophy of teaching. Get it now! I recommend this book as a teacher (8 years) who has been in both special needs (low incidence, high incidence, severe behaviour, and LD) and regular/integration classrooms. The educational guru I most admire. A behaviorist who is compassionate. His strategies can work wonders. "Good behavior management always has relationship building as its primary objective. You want teachers to relate to children positively, and you want children to succeed in school so they will be self-confident. Behavior management is simply a means to that end."

Tools for Teaching is the fruit of over four decades of research and collaboration with teachers by Dr. Fredric H. Jones. Dr. Jones has studied the "natural" teachers - the ones who get the "good kids" every year and produce two years of learning in one. What do they do? In answering this question, Dr. Jones has described the fundamental skills of classroom management in great detail. Teachers say, "This is the first time someone has told me exactly what to do rather than just giving me generalities." Just as importantly, the book is both enjoyable and down to earth.
