Synopsis

This book addresses the foundation of all school improvement: relationships plus rules and routines that will enable a school to have the potential to reach it's goals. This five-chapter book is designed to enable an individual or an entire school to understand and implement strategies that will radically shape the climate of the classroom or the entire building. Furthermore, steps on conducting a book study are found in the back of the book. Dr. Vincent and Dr. Grove will also be filming a series of trainings on the book that will be posted on YouTube and Teachertube in April of 2013 to assist schools doing a book study or desiring to truly improve the school climate for all stakeholders. Just call the Character Development Group for details!

About this title

Review

The best books are short, easy to read and understand, and full of practical ideas that can be implemented immediately. This is such a book.It's written by authors with a long and successful track record in education and with a genuine desire to contribute to our profession. They make a promise in the first paragraph of the book, and they deliver in the succeeding pages. I highly recommend it for educators of all levels. --Dr. Hal Urban, author, Lessons from the Classroom: 20 Things Good Teachers Do

This book should be required reading for beginning educators as well as for those who have years in the classroom. What the authors show us is that positive relationships, combined with rules and more importantly routines, will enable any classroom to flourish. Yes, the book reflects a great deal of common sense. But it is also profound in that it asks-no, requires-us to rethink our assumptions of what the education of the complete child should be. Put it at the top of your reading list! --Susan Knight, Ethics and Character Education Coordinator, School District of Palm Beach County, Florida

Relationships + Rules + Routines = Results: A Common Sense Approach addresses a topic that we far too often neglect: that relationships and the subsequent climate we develop in schools are foundational to all we hope to achieve. The book reminds us that how we treat and live with each other is the basis for all we want our students, and indeed ourselves, to accomplish within our schools. This book should be read by every educator, at least once a year, to remind us of why we chose to become educators and what we can do to encourage our students, and indeed ourselves, to flourish together. --Dr. Lucy Frontera, author, The Mirror of Good Character
