 • Active engagement strategies for teacher-directed instruction (both the physical classroom and the virtual classroom)

 • Corrective strategies for misbehavior and inattention

• Maintaining a Cycle of Continuous Improvement to be a better teacher each year

Perfect for grade 9 to 12 classroom teachers and educational administrators―including principals, assistant principals, staff development professionals, and consultants― Discipline in the Secondary Classroom constitutes an indispensable resource for anyone aiming to achieve a civil, safe, and fair classroom environment.
