Teaching becomes much harder when students misbehave. This book provides over 100 evidence-based strategies to help teachers effectively manage student behaviour and improve the quality of teaching and learning.
Written by leading expert Robin Launder (the Behaviour Buddy), it outlines the routines that underpin effective behaviour management, the expectations that need to be set and how to achieve student buy-in through little nuggets of tried-and-tested teacher wisdom that you can use in your classroom straightaway. Each tip takes about a minute to read, and collectively they will set up the conditions for brilliant behaviour for the entire academic year. The chapters cover:
- The teacher–student relationship
- Improving your presence and clarity
- Embedding routines
- Attention grabbers
- Strategic corrections
- Successful sanctions
- Follow-up conversations
Breaking behaviour management down into a series of practical steps, this is essential reading for every teacher. It doesn't matter if you're new to the profession or experienced, primary or secondary, state or independent, UK or non-UK; if you're a teacher, then this book is for you.
