Your First 30 Minutes - The ABC's of Successful Classroom Management

by Lynn. D Colson, Delores L. McCollum

Overview

One of the most important issues in the national discourse about American education is missing in action. Successful classroom management is absent from the agenda of policy makers, unmentioned in TV discussions, and invisible in the teacher education curriculum of most colleges and universities. As a sad consequence, disorder and chaos are realities in too many classrooms in our nation’s schools.

Your First 30 Minutes – The ABC’s of Successful Classroom Management provides practical strategies that will empower teachers to create a safe, orderly, and excellent teaching and learning environment in their classrooms. It addresses, with honesty and humor, the issues teachers must manage on a daily basis.
