A Quick Guide to Behaviour Management in The Early Years

Bullock, a classroom teacher based in Hong Kong, and Brownhill (education, U. of Derby, UK) detail 100 practical, hands-on resources that can aid teachers and practitioners in the management of children's behavior from infancy to age eight in mainstream settings. They are meant for short, medium, and long-term management and include physical, verbal, intellectual, and visual resources aimed at teachers, practitioners, and children, including handy strategies like whistles and bells, personal behavior management, effective communication, timed strategies and resources, influential strategies such as physical games and diet, reflective resources, and rewarding good behavior, with case studies for demonstration, lists of benefits, and adaptations.
