Many have accepted this as a reality of their profession, but it doesn't have to be. In Teacher Time Management: How to Prioritize Your Day So You Can Enjoy Your Evening, author Ellen I. Linnihan presents K-12 educators with a technique to manage themselves and their students so they can maximize their time and avoid burnout. She identifies three basic modes of operation-(1) low concentration, (2) medium concentration, and (3) high concentration-that teachers must master to optimize their time. By understanding their classroom's rhythm and completing the right work during the different modes, teachers can more efficiently reach their classroom goals and therefore improve their lives in and out of school'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Classrooms present diverse arrays of student personalities and behaviors. Teachers never know what unique combination of students they will lead each year, what gamut of behavior choices those students will make each day. The possibility of negative behaviors can be daunting to address, but teachers can shape their classrooms in ways that encourage students to examine and improve their behaviors without compromising their class performance and self-esteem. In Tools Not Rules: Developing Self-Regulation for Improved Student Behavior in Grades K-8, Claudia Bertolone-Smith and Marlene Moyer present the Tools Not Rules (TNR) approach, a method that empowers students in monitoring, understanding, and improving their behaviors. This approach encourages students to dissociate who they are as people from the good and bad choices they make, allowing them to assess and regulate their behaviors more effectively without detrimental consequences of self-denigration, isolation, and judgment. Equipped with thoughtful language and useful strategies, teachers who employ the TNR approach will create a welcoming classroom environment in which all students have opportunities to grow, improve, and excel, both academically and behaviorally'.
