Address discipline and behavior problems in your students without resorting to outdated, harmful, coercive measures The
Second Edition of
Lost and Found offers readers a comprehensive guide to implementing the practical and evidence-based Collaborative and Proactive Solutions (CPS) model in a modern classroom. Influential child psychologist Dr. Ross W. Greene relies on his decades of experience in working with schools, parents, and treatment facilities to deliver a compassionate, practical, and effective approach to helping students with concerning behaviors. The book describes a non-punitive, non-exclusionary, collaborative, proactive method in which educators are encouraged to position themselves as allies and partners with students, rather than as adversaries or enemies. You'll find updated examples and dialogues perfect for modern classrooms and recent innovations culled from Dr. Greene's continuously evolving CPS model. Ideal for K-12 educators in general and special education,
Lost and Found has already earned a place in the libraries of teachers-in-training, professors, and parents who struggle to deal with persistent behavioral issues that consume massive amounts of time, energy, and resources.
