“This is a great book with which to start because it covers the basics—the foundation that needs to be in place before the academics can take hold for a student at risk. The ideas are easy to follow and could be implemented with little or, in some cases, no additional prep—that’s a bonus for an already busy teacher.”
“If teachers feel they are in a negative interaction pattern with children and/or their parents, there are many simple effective strategies that can be utilized to change this pattern. This book emphasizes building positive relationships and then, on this foundation, meeting children where they are based on systematic data collection, and teaching specific social and academic behavior to increase their success.”
