"really quick read - great for teachers. Want to peruse their other books for more ideas. Although I am feeling like everything I say to my own kids is wrong now!"
"I just re-read this book while doing some substitute teaching at the school I will be working at beginning in August. It is such a helpful book and gets me excited to start the new school year and have kids of my own. The illustrations (comic book style) help show really good situations parents and teachers might face and how we might confront them. Being aware of how I talk to my students has really helped my teaching practice. Having read it twice now will help me find the areas I may need assistance with once the school year starts a bit faster."
"advice and cartoons a bit simplistic and feel a little contrived ("oh yeah, like that'll work...") but if you look at the broad strokes and communication techniques addressed, you can put some of their ideas into action and see how to respond to kids/students (and friends, colleagues, significant others!) in a way that will encourage them instead of discouraging.
breaking a kid out of his "role", praise and punishment, parent/teacher relationship, problem solving and cooperation, "how to deal with feelings that interfere with learning""
"This author and book series was highly recommended by a Speech-language Pathologist in a professional newsletter I was reading, so I checked it out.
I only had time to read a few chapters before I needed to return it to the library, but I really liked what I read. I appreciated the insights and respectful and validating approach it teaches for relating to children and their feelings.
This book was written for school teachers, so next time I intend to check out the one for parents: How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk."
