"This title by Scarlett and Ponte and Singh is highly recommended for use as a textbook or a supplemental resource for classroom management courses."

"This book moves caring from being an object of study to being a professional practice. Thinking of classroom management in terms of relationships, learning, development, organization and accommodating diversity redefines discipline. No longer is it about rules and punishments—now it is about connections and meaning making. This is a book that a teacher can really do something with!"—George Noblit, University of North Carolina

"This work is a lucid approach to the pragmatic application of classroom management. It is a valuable tool in the classroom teacher's arsenal."

"This wise and readily accessible book fills a gaping hole in the literature preparing teachers to address classroom management. A central message of the book is that methods are not approaches. Methods that work with middle class children may not work in the same way with inner city students, or children from other cultures. The dilemma facing many teachers is how to adjust methods and still maintain integrity and coherence in their teaching. Teachers are not technicians, and methods “cookbooks” won’t suffice.

"Scarlett and his colleagues write about that fertile middle ground between coercive control and hopeful laissez-faire that all good teachers must find, and they do so with a wisdom that comes from years of thinking about the dilemmas of teaching. In every chapter, the authors consider approaches to teaching children, and the range of methods supporting those approaches, through the uncommonly reasonable lens of respect--respect for the adults and the children in our schools.
