Recenzii

"From start to finish, this book contains the type of information that is absolutely critical to successfully intervening with students’ challenging behaviors. Mismanaged students’ behavior is a teacher’s Achilles heel, leading to burnout and a premature exodus from the profession. This book is more than a checklist menu of steps for creating a BIP. This book is full of gems, insights, and spot-on irreverent details—the underbelly of every school. Johnson’s interesting and creative, quirky storytelling drew me in and I absolutely could not put the book down. This book is one of a kind and I highly recommend it to every professional who develops behavior intervention plans. I plan on using this book as required reading for my school-based consultation class."
