Secrets of Classroom Behavior Management
Beyond the College Textbooks for New Teachers
New teachers have no idea of the challenges they will face when they walk into the classroom for their first year of teaching. Whether it is a public school in the inner city or an upscale private school, students today lack discipline, making it stressful and difficult for new teachers.
Mrs. Hill has brought her extensive teaching experiences from all of these settings together in this practical guide to managing classroom behavior. These behavioral strategies are not theory but proven methods to improve the classroom experience for children and teachers.
If you put these methods into practice your students will benefit from the discipline. They will be able to learn the skills needed to take their place in society because you will not be spending all your time attempting to correct unruly behavior. You will then be able to experience the rewards of teaching.

My nieces and nephews inspired me to write this book, especially my nephew, Tre, who refuses to admit that he is sleepy. He would rather fall asleep in the chair than acknowledge that it is time to go to bed.

Fortunately, on school nights, their parents made sure that they went to bed at their regular bedtime.
