Amazon Customer Review `What a privilege to read a book written by the person that has had the most impact on my classroom teaching and the whole ethos of our school. Behaviour Management with Young Children brings together Bill's insight into behaviour management and Elizabeth's understanding of young children and has resulted in a practical and realistic behaviour management manual that will be easily accessible to teachers in the early years...I shall be recommending it to all my teaching and support staff as essential reading' - Debbie Hoy, Headteacher, Brookland Infant & Nursery School, Cheshunt, Hertfordshire
`As headteacher of an Infant and Nursery School with children from 3-7 years old, Bill and Elizabeth's book is what we have been waiting for. A comprehensive guide to the effective behaviour management of our youngest children, it will be essential reading for all our staff...This is a book which can easily be read from cover to cover, as it is difficult to put down, but for busy practitioners it is equally useful to dip into if you want help with a specific aspect of behaviour management. [The] approaches are firmly based on sound theory and what works with children, and Elizabeth clearly describes the practical and effective application of those ideas in the earliest years of education. The book is a delight to read and will be a constant source of inspiration and guidance to us all' - Cathy Whalen, Headteacher, Mousehold Infant and Nursery School, Norwich, Norfolk
`With their feet firmly planted in the reality of the classroom Bill and Elizabeth show how subtle changes to everyday interchanges between adults and pupils can have an enormous impact upon pupil success. It is amazing how simple yet effective the strategies outlined here are. The ideas and concepts shared in the book are accessible to all staff and we can all recognise some of ourselves and our pupils in Bill's delightful illustrations. This book will make a difference not only to the behaviour of pupils but also to the sanity of teachers. It is a must for every staff room!' - Jane Bellamy, Headteacher, Wold Newton School, Wold Newton, Driffield, East Riding of Yorkshire
