Description

The tools that teachers need for building safer, more inclusive schools, from a school-wide code of conduct to creating, enforcing, and supporting a behaviour plan. Committed to teaching so all students can learn, the book offers ideas for planning and adapting curriculum for a wide range of students. It also encourages strategies that build collaborative learning, with examples of effective problem solving. This completely updated resource includes examples of resource models, simple adaptations, and more. Ideal for both new and experienced teachers, with simple suggestions, hands-on activities, and reproducibles that will help teachers meet the diverse needs of all students.
