Book excerpt: Teaching is made easier when you have a fast-acting classroom management system that works. Rob Plevin believes any teacher can dramatically reduce classroom behaviour problems and achieve classroom management success by adopting this easy-to-follow 6-part plan adapted from his Needs-Focused approach to teaching & classroom management. Enhanced with a suite of additional downloadable resources & videos, Classroom Management Success in 7 Days or Less provides teachers with a framework of fundamental preventive techniques and details a stepped process for responding to students who have difficulty following instructions. If you're a teacher facing hard-to-reach, tough groups of students who talk over you and won't do as you ask, the ideas in this book will help you put in place a simple system for gaining respect, building positive teacher-student bonds, dealing with incidents and creating a calm, responsive classroom. All in 7 days or less!
