Use positive behavior management to keep even "difficult" students focused on learning this year. by Bill Rogers
Like every teacher, I know how crucial a task it is to develop the smooth running of a class. In my work in Australia and around the world, I've seen over and over again what a feat it can be to take 25 or more students of mixed ability,background, and temperament and build a cooperative, rights-respecting group.Certain kinds of student behavior--common to every classroom but maddening none the less--make that task even more challenging.

The Chatterbox
The Clinger
The Boycotter
The Debater
