Helping Students Fix Problems and Avoid Crises: An Easy-to-Use Intervention Resource for Grades 1-4 de Lawrence J. Greene

Helping Students Fix Problems and Avoid Crises: An Easy-to-Use Intervention Resource for Grades 1-4

Autor Lawrence J. Greene
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 aug 2005
This easy-to-use resource for teachers, counsellors, and school administrators working with children ages 6-9 uses instructional principles to help educators model effective life skills behaviours: - breaking tasks and challenges into manageable pieces
- modeling solutions
- structuring opportunities for practice
- providing feedback
- and affirming progress.
The book offers units covering topics that include the child who doesn't have friends, who does poorly in sports, who has difficulty learning, who steals, who tells lies, who bullies others. Each unit provides a succinct discussion of the topic for the educator, a 10-minute read-aloud story, strategic thinking questions, optional paper-and-pencil activities, and photocopiable exercises.
The book includes two appendices to guide the teacher through more complex psychological problems and psychological overlay, which may require referral and counselling. This book will be an essential resource for every primary teacher who wants to help guide learners through many of the developmental challenges of childhood.

Recenzii

“Provides a sequential method for teaching the skills children need to help themselves. . . I can see where this book will be one that is dog-eared and never just sitting on the shelf.”
“This book offers real steps for helping empower kids. The lessons are designed so that all children within a classroom would benefit, whether they are the child for whom the lesson was designed or the one for whom the lesson will build empathy, compassion, and understanding. Most books are not user friendly, providing off-the-shelf lessons. Mr. Greene has taken a truly easy-to-use methodical approach to problems kids face that can become a pivotal point in turning them around at an earlier age.”
“Very practical and usable units, easy to understand and carry out. . . . Child-centered and internally empowering for the student.”
"I appreciate the book's informal tone and the flow of material. It is very readable; free of complicated psychobabble and excessive jargon. Although teachers get classroom management in the education curriculum, the strategies are laced with common sense that often gets passed over in the general education curriculum. (The) writing is clear: stories are useful and appropriate to the content area discussed, table of contents is comprehensive; exercises are helpful."
"A welcome intervention guide for teachers in the early grades. This book is a valuable tool with ideas that can be implemented within language arts, social studies, or health curriculum."
