“Wow! This is the book that I've been waiting
for! It will make a huge positive impact on my beginning teachers
and their students. So many great practical ideas – all framed
with a powerful, illuminating, and compassionate lens. As practical
as Harry Wong, as thought provoking as William Glasser, this
book not only provides usable strategies for teachers, it also
serves as a perfect catalyst for powerful collegial conversations,
allowing teachers a deep and rich reflection on their practice.
It's a great resource for the “tool boxes” of educators everywhere!”

“…I think this is the best book on classroom
management I could imagine. It links one's own personal growth
with influencing students, and the world, for the better, spelling
out the exact details. It works for elementary and secondary
teaching, pre-service and in-service support.”

“Conscious Classroom Management details
the thought processes that are critical to effective teaching.
It clearly spells out the how and why with specific strategies
for success. A great book that should be a must-read for all
teachers.”

"Conscious Classroom
Management is destined to make Rick as much of a "household
name" in classroom management as Harry Wong, Alfie Kohn,
Lee Canter and William Glasser."

after aha"..."
