Overview

From the renowned authority on education and parenting, "an in-depth approach to aid parents and teachers to work together with behaviorally challenging students" (Publishers Weekly)--now revised and updated.

School discipline is broken. Too often, the kids who need our help the most are viewed as disrespectful, out of control, and beyond help, and are often the recipients of our most ineffective, most punitive interventions. These students--and their parents, teachers, and administrators--are frustrated and desperate for answers.

Dr. Ross W. Greene, author of the acclaimed book The Explosive Child, offers educators and parents a different framework for understanding challenging behavior. Dr. Greene's Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) approach helps adults focus on the true factors contributing to challenging classroom behaviors, empowering educators to address these factors and create helping relationships with their most at-risk kids.

This revised and updated edition of Lost at School contains the latest refinements to Dr. Greene's CPS model, including enhanced methods for solving problems collaboratively, improving communication, and building relationships with kids.

Dr. Greene's lively, compelling narrative includes:

- Tools to identify the problems and lagging skills causing challenging behavior
- Explicit guidance on how to radically improve interactions with challenging kids and reduce challenging episodes--along with many examples showing how it's done
- Practical guidance for successful planning and collaboration among educators, parents, and kids

Backed by years of experience and research and written with a powerful sense of hope and achievable change, Lost at School gives teachers and parents the realistic strategies and information to impact the classroom experience of every challenging kid (and their classmates).

  • Lost at School by Ross W. Greene, PH. D.

    Shanna D. - 6 years 4 months ago

    It is a very eye opening book. I have worked with special needs kids and challenging behavior kids for 30 years. I have always known that the discipline and reward system didn't work, but didn't know exactly why. This book explains that very thing and makes sense of why the system is not working. I highly recommend this book for reading to anyone in the educational system. I am a Para-educator. You have to keep an open mind. I do think we do use this method or similar method where I work so we have a head start. Maybe someone I work with or in my district has already read this book. Great book, you will not be sorry you read it.
