Need Effective Classroom Management Strategies? Read This Review of Rick Dahlgren’s “Time To Teach”
Teachers have one of the most difficult jobs in today’s world. A teacher’s day is filled with many tasks not directly related to instruction: classroom management, discipline, administrative tasks, bus duties, lunch counts, social needs of children, endless reports, and even repairs and maintenance in their classrooms. All these tasks make many teachers wonder, “When will I find time to teach?”
“Time To Teach” is a classroom management resource book by author Rick Dahlgren. Dahlgren offers ways teachers can restore lost instructional time through a set of classroom management strategies. The author clearly explains these simple, fair, and mutually respectful strategies to help teachers expand their own “Time To Teach.”
Promptly addressing minor problems in order to prevent major ones – at home and at school – is what makes good disciplinarians, according to Dahlgren. Good discipline begins with the “little stuff” as contemporary teachers realize. In “Time To Teach,” Dahlgren demonstrates how promptly paying attention to the “little stuff,” a teacher can prevent the “big stuff.” In other words, good timing is the key to effective discipline.
“Time To Teach” contains both theories and techniques. The theories will provide an understanding of low-level behaviors and how they impact children. The techniques will demonstrate how those behaviors can be eliminated. Additionally, the techniques can help you manage a wide range of behavioral challenges with confidence and satisfaction.
Children and adolescents can and will be responsible for their own behavior and learning if important skills are taught first, according to Rick Dahlgren. Dr. Madeline Hunter and Coach John Wooden, both of UCLA (quite a story), provided the initial guidance for “Time To Teach.” Focusing on proven strategies for teaching important skills to students, “Time To Teach” also helps teacher evaluate their successes, and be ready to deliver effective consequences when needed.
At 140 pages, “Time To Teach” is written in a quick to read “non-educationese” style. Special techniques are presented for preventing most discipline problems and for dealing effectively with those that do occur. Teachers can begin to regain lost instructional time so important in today’s classroom as they learn the effective classroom management strategies outlined in “Time To Teach.
