′Bill Rogers offers individual teachers a wide repertoire of relational management skills. He provides clear guidance for putting professional integrity and emotional literacy into practice from early, minimal intervention to responding to the most difficult student and the most challenging situation. He also suggests ways staff groups might develop a more supportive environment for each other―including mentoring.
I cannot speak highly enough of Classroom Behavior. All educators will identify with the situations Bill describes. He does not duck the realities in today′s schools and classrooms. He manages, however, to find the balance between acknowledging the difficulties and demands on teachers, whilst also being supportive of students by responding to their needs, competencies and their right to respectful interactions.
He does this with clarity, vitality and humor.
Every teacher needs this book and every student needs them to have read it!′
―Sue Roffey, Senior lecturer at the University of Western Sydney
This major second edition comprehensively addresses the issues that teachers face in today′s classrooms. Classroom Behavior explores the relationship between effective teaching, behavior management, discipline and colleague support.
Bill Rogers also addresses issues such as:
- Argumentative and challenging children
- Students with emotional or behavioral disorders

This practical guide is written by someone well aware of how demanding teaching can be and is highly recommended for teachers at all levels, teaching assistants and newly-qualified teachers.
