Description
A complete guide to a new approach to school discipline is presented in this book. Traditional methods often rely on punishments and motivational techniques, but Dr. Ablon and Dr. Pollastri's Collaborative Problem-Solving (CPS) model offers an alternative. By focusing on the skills that students lack, rather than their willpower, educators can create a more effective intervention plan for challenging behaviors. The book provides a step-by-step program for implementing the CPS approach, including reproducible assessment tools to identify skill deficits. This allows teachers, counselors, coaches, and administrators to develop new strategies for supporting students who struggle with frustration tolerance, flexibility, and other essential skills. With this guide, you can adopt a more effective approach to school discipline, one that prioritizes skill-building over punishment. The book offers actionable strategies for working with challenging students, making it an invaluable resource for educators seeking to improve student outcomes.
