All I know is that my 3 year old granddaughter loves it. Her other grandmother gave her a roll of quarters for her present to accompany it. What am I doing wrong?
Anyway, she loves it and plays with it all the time according to her parents.

$26.95
This is an excellent book for new teachers as well as a good review for veteran teachers on best practices regarding classroom management. I highly recommend it.

Teaching Outside the Box: How to Grab Your Students By Their Brains

but you can do many of these in your class. While geared more toward an English class (the author does teach English, after all), many of the ideas and strategies can be used by other teachers. The author focuses on organization and behavior management, which is sorely needed in classrooms today. She gives real world examples that, if done right, have a wonderful effect on the classroom environment.
Unfortunately, there are so MANY tips, the teacher reading this may feel overwhelmed and discouraged from trying any of the tips. My advice is to pick a few strategies and use them in class. Then, start to build upon the foundation and you will see some changes in the classroom attitude and environment.
Overall, the book is a good resource especially for secondary teachers.
