Description
Win-Win Discipline is the most concrete and comprehensive classroom discipline program available. Win-Win transforms our very concept of discipline.

Are there problems in your classroom you’d love to eliminate? Come learn winning strategies for every discipline problem. Win-Win Discipline gives you concrete strategies for prevention, for the moment-of-disruption, and for follow-ups. You learn to recognise and respond differently to the seven positions that lead to almost all discipline problems. Learn to team up with disruptive students, helping them learn responsible ways to meet their needs. The disruptive student wins. He/she learns responsible ways to meet needs so disruptions are unnecessary. The class wins. Students spend their time learning, unhindered by disruptions. You win. You get to teach without interruptions and won’t get irritated or burnt-out. Win-Win changes everything. Come to school excited to teach!
