Holistic Discipline: A Total Approach to Classroom Management

Holistic Discipline is designed to help preservice teachers deal with mainstream students and those who display disruptive behaviours. The book provides the steps to build a behaviour management policy for the classroom and school. It also shows preventative and supportive discipline techniques, both in terms of practical advice and philosophical principles underpinning such practices. The particular strength of this book is it shows preservice teachers how to tap the natural needs in children that support instead of undermine teaching. The ideas in this book are not state specific and will be generic enough to be used across all states and territories.
