It will give you the techniques for discipline that they didn't teach you in college. You know - the techniques that work! Every school system should buy this book for all of their new teachers!”............

“Discipline Without Anger allowed me to become a much better teacher! I no longer had to spend my time or energy on classroom management issues. All behavior issues are addressed with Discipline Without Anger (even the small ones) and I went home in the afternoons a much happier and less stressed teacher. The best part of the plan is that it is adaptable to all teaching styles. A MUST-READ and a MUST have behavior management plan for ANY teacher!”
— Polly Kennedy, Polk County High School, NC
This reviewer was skeptical of the promise of this book, a new style of classroom management. The first four chapters are informative; however, beginning with chapter 5, this book is invaluable as a resource and as a new approach to classroom management. Its value is in the manner in which it streamlines and simplifies classroom management in a respectful and fair manner. Chapter 1 does a brilliant job of demonstrating by example why this book is needed--teacher frustration regarding so much time spent on discipline and not enough time left for quality teaching. Campbell provides a plan that is appropriate and essential for the classroom, is easily adaptable to a variety of classroom teaching styles, and would translate well for use in the home. Summing Up: Highly recommended.
