It's what every educator wants and can have: a classroom that is respectful, active, collaborative, and growth-oriented. We believe that good classroom management skills aren't magic or a lucky gift given to a chosen few. Management in the Active Classroom provides clear, straightforward guidance to help all teachers learn, practice, and master techniques and protocols that build self-discipline, responsibility, engagement, and leadership skills in their students.
Management in the Active Classroom is filled with proven, practical strategies harvested from successful schools across the United States. Strategies are described in concrete language, illustrated through classroom examples, and illuminated by companion videos. This guide will equip teachers, whether veterans or brand-new, to join inspired, collaborative learning with a calm and thoughtful classroom culture.
Steven R. Mahoney , Associate Director and Director of School Partnerships, Harvard Teacher Fellows“Finally, a coherent collection of strategies that positions classroom management in service of student learning...It should be a core text for every teacher.”
