Item Description...
No teacher wants to be a drill sergeant. No child wants to be in trouble all the time.....Imagine being able to take all the energy that you spend on crowd control and pour it into teaching kids to know, love, and follow Jesus. You can.
Teachers who are masters at classroom discipline aren't born that way--they're trained. These teachers have learned what makes kids tick, how to teach kids of all learning styles, and the importance of respecting their students. Excellent teachers know and understand their students' needs and then create a classroom environment where diverse needs can be met.
This book offers you the tools for teaching through your own example as well as by lesson. You'll learn to honor children as Jesus honored them, to understand and meet their needs, and to recognize and deal with differences in personalities and learning styles. You'll find practical help for the nitty-gritty situations that come up in classrooms week in and week out. You'll receive expert advice on important issues such as how to deal with children with Attention Deficit Disorder (A.D.D.), Find advice on how to work with parents to improve your relationships with students. The final chapter offers training principles of positive discipline as you work together to develop a unified discipline plan for your church.

A Wonderful Practical Resource for Christian Workers Jun 12, 2006
I can't say enough about the wisdom in this book. Perfectly applicable for today's Christian workers and the environment in which they work. Anywone working with children in church should have a resource like this. This author obviously knows what she is talking about. She is an exremely talented and devoted Christian teacher. I also suggest her other book called Touching Hearts Touching Lives. The biography alone makes it extremly valuable to anyone considering persuing teaching as a career. A lot of wisdom and love has been poured into both of these books.
helped me want to work with kids Jun 10, 2005
I volunteered to teach a class of four year olds for a year in a church ministry. Seven of the kids were great, but one little boy's behavior made me regret my decision, and his behavior started affecting the other boys. I picked this book up at a Children's Ministry Seminar, and it changed everything. I instituted the suggestions in this book, and the difference was almost miraculous. Not only did I understand the boy better, but the suggestions worked! I saw change immediately, and the boy's behavior continued to be good as long as I was consistent. The year turned out to be a blessing to me and to the kids. He was a sweet boy who was always excited to see "his teacher," and he said he'd miss me over the summer.
Very detailed... but very simple... May 12, 2003
It's a great book. It helped me understand the different types of kids... and how they learn differently... Now I can spot a learning type from across the room... really helped me understand the "wiggly" kid...

The Discipline Guide is an excellent source for anyone who is working with children. It can be used for teacher training. The book covers a variety of areas in discipline. The authors incorporate all the aspects of a child's whole person in a concise and understandable way. This book will change your thinking and will forever help in working with children. I really enjoyed reading the book and plan to use it when I train teachers in church. It can be used in a variety of ways, from sunday school to daycare.
