Inviting Positive Classroom Discipline

This book applies the valid and positive theory of "Invitational Education" to the ever present concern with discipline. Using the easy-to-identify-with metaphor of orange and blue cards, Purkey and Strahan spin an engaging treatise punctuated throughout by "Blue Notes" specific ideas and activities to use in creating an approach to classroom management that is pure middle school. While focused on discipline, the views expressed are directly related to curriculum and instruction and will lead to improved student learning as well as improved behavior.
