It addresses current concerns about student motivation and helps prospective and beginning teachers develop a philosophy of classroom management that focuses on building connections with students and creating safe, caring classrooms." "The text profiles five master teachers (grades K, 1, 3, 4 and 5/6) in very different school settings as they create classrooms that are orderly and productive, humane and caring. The integration of the thinking and the actual management practices of five real elementary teachers into discussions of research-based management principles prompts readers to connect theories with actual results. Coverage of a first-year kindergarten teacher has been added to the new edition to allow the authors to present the views of a novice educator."--BOOK JACKET  aText  aUnmediated  aVolume
