Sprick outlines a comprehensive， in-depth program for time management， discipline， and grading in the High School classroom。

I definitely think this is a teacher book I will keep for reference。 Some useful reminders， visuals， acronyms， and more， especially during moments of struggle during the school year。

（4。5） Great， practical resource with concrete ideas that can actually be implemented in the classroom。 I would just like a less convoluted approach to chronic misbehaviors。 Still processing that chapter。

Great informative on classroom management。 Need to buy for my bookshelf。 For high school 9-12。I’m not a teacher， but this is super helpful for strategies and what to look out for during classroom and student observations。 Very helpful tips。

Read for an online class I took to maintain my teaching certificate， this book offers an enormous amount of resources on the CD/DVD that comes with the text， as well as a step by step， task oriented approach to creating the classroom management system that will work for you。 It is not a cookie cutter approach， but provides research based methods and explanations for how following the step by step guide will help you to create a classroom environment in which students can be successful both acade Read for an online class I took to maintain my teaching certificate， this book offers an enormous amount of resources on the CD/DVD that comes with the text， as well as a step by step， task oriented approach to creating the classroom management system that will work for you。 It is not a cookie cutter approach， but provides research based methods and explanations for how following the step by step guide will help you to create a classroom environment in which students can be successful both academically and behaviorally and that you can teach in according to your own style。 Student teachers， new teachers， and veteran teachers can all gain something from this text and trying the ideas included。My only drawback and reason for not giving five stars is that it assumes a traditional teaching environment。 Having taken other courses， especially one on Flipped Learning， some things in the newer methodologies and approaches， especially in the 21st century technological world we live in， some suggestions and ideas offered in this text， would not work well in that sort of environment。 。。。more

Re-iterates many of the strategies that work: backward design， clear and stated objectives， regular and timely feedback， continuous classroom monitoring， relationships with students， etc。 I don't think I will ever embrace the administrative tedium of rewarding behavior or participation points。 Re-iterates many of the strategies that work: backward design， clear and stated objectives， regular and timely feedback， continuous classroom monitoring， relationships with students， etc。 I don't think I will ever embrace the administrative tedium of rewarding behavior or participation points。 。。。more

It's not just claiming it is， but actually offers many strategies， somewhat like a managing course （e。g。 how to intervene in chronic misbehavior; make sure you count the amount of misbehaviour by creating a latency chart and such。） very useful， some really concrete plans rather than just saying 'identify the target behaviour'。 Agree with what someone else stated that this book doesn't just describe the concept of discipline。 It's not just claiming it is， but actually offers many strategies， somewhat like a managing course （e。g。 how to intervene in chronic misbehavior; make sure you count the amount of misbehaviour by creating a latency chart and such。） very useful， some really concrete plans rather than just saying 'identify the target behaviour'。 Agree with what someone else stated that this book doesn't just describe the concept of discipline。 。。。more

I had some challenging classes， and was searching for help。 This book gave me lots of concrete， rather than simply conceptual， help。 I think it's a good resource book。 I had some challenging classes， and was searching for help。 This book gave me lots of concrete， rather than simply conceptual， help。 I think it's a good resource book。 。。。more

If you have a chance to take a college class that uses this book as a text， take the class。 I wish I'd had this as a class in college。 I'm planning to use the templates in this book to help me plan and prepare my first day materials。 I can't wait to have a chance to use this before next year so I can really get into it。 If you have a chance to take a college class that uses this book as a text， take the class。 I wish I'd had this as a class in college。 I'm planning to use the templates in this book to help me plan and prepare my first day materials。 I can't wait to have a chance to use this before next year so I can really get into it。 。。。more

Sending it back。 Good for a reference， but not a page turner。 Have to check it out again a few months in to the year and see how it changes what I'm doing。 Sending it back。 Good for a reference， but not a page turner。 Have to check it out again a few months in to the year and see how it changes what I'm doing。 。。。more
