Abstract: The most powerful classroom tool isn't a program; it's educators like you. Authors Christopher L. Van Loan and Justin D. Garwood show teachers how to shift from managing behavior to transforming and building genuine, high-quality relationships through reflection, self-awareness, and connection. Learn how to calm crises, rebuild trust, and rekindle your purpose by changing the way you see yourself and your students. K-12 teachers and administrators can use this book to: (1) Model calm, constructive responses that help students navigate emotional and behavioral challenges; (2) Approach struggling students from a place of empathy, strength, and encouragement; (3) Identify the roots of conflict and de-escalate tension before it turns into a crisis; (4) Integrate emotional and behavioral learning seamlessly with academic instruction; and (5) Discover collaboration methods for working with fellow teachers.
