This practical guide gives useful advice on: understanding the your role in managing behaviour in the classroom; developing effective strategies for dealing with problem behaviour; using rewards and sanctions and helping pupils to understand why their behaviour is unacceptable and what they can do to improve. Each chapter contains activities and questions for TAs to learn from. This is essential reading for all Teaching Assistants.
"Excellent organisation and physical layout, succinct information, compact chapters and a valuable conclusion that presents the main points thoroughly yet concisely... The clarity and scope of the book make it highly suitablefor both teaching assistants and teachers alike" Nasen Special, November 2008
