Description
A typical classroom includes students of considerable behavioral diversity, and maintaining classroom focus is often dependent upon successfully managing disruptive moments. In Power Struggles: Successful Techniques for Educators (Second Edition), authors Allen N. Mendler and Brian D. Mendler provide many different strategies to deal with all levels of difficult and resistant students. Drawing from years of experience, they help teachers understand the root causes of misbehavior and offer practical, step-by-step instructions on how to defuse situations in a way that protects the dignity of all involved and keeps the lesson on track.
