Cracking the Hard Class - William A. Rogers - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

At some point in every teacher′s career he/she will encounter the `hard class′ and from day one the countdown to the end of the day, term and year is on in earnest. But as demanding as it may be, a difficult class does not have to dominate and permeate through all waking moments. Bill Rogers, in Cracking the Hard Class , Second Edition , highlights many practical strategies that can be implemented to overcome the hard class syndrome. These include: identifying what makes a class `hard′; developing a class behaviour plan; developing colleague support; following up on disruptive students; changing patterns of bad behaviour; and assisting relief teachers and the hard class. As well as constructive ideas and strategies, Cracking the Hard Class , Second Edition also highlights the normality of the pressures and stress felt by teachers dealing with these classes.
