BONUS BOOK: The Win-Win Classroom: A Fresh and Positive Look at Classroom Management by Jane Bluestein is hands down the most useful teaching resource I’ve ever read. Bluestein is such an advocate of positivity and healthy classrooms!! She’s also an amazing presenter, should you have an opportunity to see her, or have access to her CDs. Her website, janebluestein.com, offers a ton of useful materials under the ‘Educators’ and ‘General Intererst’ tabs.
