100 Ideas for Secondary Teachers: Managing Behaviour

by Johnnie Young

Overview

Managing behavior in the secondary classroom can be demanding, hard work, and for the newly qualify teacher, sometimes intimidating. In this brand new edition, experienced teacher and author Johnnie Young brings together over 100 tried and tested, practical ideas to help manage the range of difficult behaviours found in the secondary classroom.

Whether you are an experienced teacher or someone with little practical teaching experience, there are strategies in this book for you; from those that will help to resolve serious issues such as bullying and conflict in the classroom, to those that show that even the smallest changes – reducing tension in the classroom, employing the right kind of body language and using creative language to engage your students – can have a huge impact and dramatically improve behaviour.



This book has been fully revised and updated for the secondary market and has a brand new layout making the book even easier to dip in and out of and the ideas even easier to use and implement quickly.


Includes:
Teaching tips, Taking it further ideas, Bonus ideas, Quotes from teachers and students

Editorial Reviews

This book is full of great tips which are based on years of experience in challenging classrooms. They really work and will enhance your performance in classroom management. I highly recommend this book."

Peter Haddon

This is an excellent book. While showing the reader how to teach and how to engage with children (including those who "don't want" to behave or learn) Johnnie Young shows us a host of ideas and techniques. It is written in an extremely accessible style so you can pick up good ideas from a five-minute dip or you can read it for longer to expand your classroom skills. Teachers will return to this book again and again.
