Getting Classroom Management RIGHT provides resources specifically designed for teachers who work with adolescents and want to create learning environments that foster fairness, mutual respect, student accountability, and self-discipline. It offers research-based tools, skills, and guiding principles that enable secondary teachers to organize and manage their classrooms for optimal learning; prevent most disruptive behaviors; diagnose and respond to problematic behaviors efficiently; and provide the right kinds of accountable consequences and supportive interventions that will help reluctant and resistant students to turn around their behavior.ESR's five step approach to classroom management, Guided Discipline and Personalized Support, presents case studies and sample responses to six familiar problem types; teacher qualities and skill sets associated with effective classroom management; routines, procedures, and group learning protocols that build a high functioning classroom community; essential practices, strategies, and scripts that invite student engagement, cooperation, and self-correction; individual and group strategies for supporting positive behavior; and specific intervention protocols for chronic unwanted behaviors. 
Getting Classroom Management RIGHT includes three other notable features: - alignment to the three-tiered framework of Response to Intervention (RTI) and Positive Behavior Support (PBS) to meet the needs of all learners; - behavior report forms, problem solving protocols, conduct cards, and learning contracts that can be used in conjunction with teacher-student conferencing and more intensive interventions; and - over 60 protocols that offer suggestions for incorporating classroom management topics into school-based professional development and education courses

Educators for Social Responsibility

We believe that good teaching not only supports the intellectual development of adolescents-it nourishes their spirits and touches their hearts. Students want teachers who care about them; they want coursework that connects to their lives and the world they live in; and they want to be academically challenged and held accountable for meeting those challenges. Making Learning REAL showcases proven classroom practices that increase students' motivation, effort, and engagement in learning and enable teachers and students to become partners in a high performing community of learners. 
Making Learning REAL is organized around seven core practices: 1. Developing Positive Relationships Among and Between Students and Teachers 2. Personalized Student-centered Learning 3. Multiple Ways of Knowing and Learning 4. Establishing Clear Norms and Boundaries 5. Building a Cohesive Community of Learners 6. Providing High Expectations and High Student Support 7. Affirming Diversity in Your Classroom
A set of readings link theory and research to each of the core practices. The book also includes a guide for assessing student learning, preparation and start-up of the new school year, the first day of class, and the first month of school. Over 60 protocols in a special appendix offer suggestions for incorporating topics from Making Learning REAL into school-based professional development and education courses.

School leaders agree that advisory is a core structure for personalizing schooling for adolescents. The challenge is crafting the best program for your students and faculty. The Advisory Guide helps secondary educators design and implement an advisory program tailored to their school s needs and goals. In this comprehensive guide, the design chapters present snapshots of various advisory models, and help planning teams think through nine major issues that should be addressed in order for the program and faculty advisors to get off to a good start. The implementation chapters offer facilitation tips, suggestions for using 15 different formats, and over 130 sample activities organized around ten advisory themes, including student orientation, community building, tools for school and learning, goal-setting and assessment, life skills, and career exploration. Perfect for large and small schools, independent and public. The Advisory Guide is a must-have resource for anyone involved in advisory from study groups and committees thinking through implementation to the advisors in the classroom.

Includes hundreds of tangible and classroom-tested tools, strategies, and routines that students say make a positive difference in their motivation to learn and succeed. The guide also includes sections on classroom discipline and management, as well as a day-by-day plan for the first month of class.

Partners in Learning: From Conflict to Collaboration in Secondary Classrooms

Shifting Gears supports district and school leaders and School Climate-Discipline team members to guide their own professional learning and that of the school s faculty and staff as they develop and implement a restorative, problem-solving approach to creating systems of discipline and student support. Section 1 sets the stage by providing foundational information about the discipline problem, features of an effective discipline model, the research behind those features, and the importance of understanding adolescent development and how it can shape more effective disciplinary policies and practices for middle and high school students. Section 2 takes a deep dive into each component of an accountable and restorative schoolwide discipline and student support model. It delves into the gears that work together to create an effective system: School Vision; Code of Character, Conduct, and Support; Essential Teams; The Right Data; Schoolwide Initiatives; Classroom Practices; Interventions and Case Management; and Families and Adult Allies as Partners. Chapters on each gear provide recommendations and practical, how-to guidance for recalibrating the schoolwide discipline and student support model or implementing targeted improvements in the model.
