Customer Reviews

A standard tool for my school counseling program

This is a great tool I use all of the time to help kids learn more positive behaviors. It has many quick and easy ideas and reproducibles - and if used consistantly, significant improvements in behavior happens for the majority of kids.

Must have!!

This book is a must have for anyone that works with children. It has great ideas for every social situation your children may have. Best investment I ever made. This book is my wowrk training manual.

If I had to choose

I teach special education and if someone were to say to me, "You can only have one book to help you in the classroom, what book do you want?" I would choose, Tough Kids Tool Box. I had loaned this book to a fellow teacher and she thought she had lost it. I was frantic, trying to find another copy. Luckily we located mine. I no longer loan it. I recommend it to all teachers, fresh out of college or the veteran.

Superb Classroom Reference

This book, along with "The Tough Kid Book"(the companion book), would be a wonderful reference for anyone who teaches or works in an elementary school setting. I have used both of these classroom behavorial management books for many years, and just purchased copies of each title to give to two beginning teachers. Of all the books I own, these are the two I utilize the most. They are both realistic and include many practical ideas & copy-ready sheets. Buy both of these books. You won't be sorry!

Need help with out of control kids?...this book is for you

I have recently read this book and read it from cover to cover. The stragies are useful and realistic. They are easy to understand and again, realistic. We, as educators, need "quick fixes" that WORK! We need to know what, why, how, and the pros and cons of implementaion of behavior stratagies and plans. This book certainly has all of this and is a must have for long time educators that need refreshing ways of dealing with children and for new teachers that need to start somewhere. A MUST HAVE!
