This book has been great; everything that I have covered in my classes are in this book and I use it faithfully in the classroom whenever I have questions are need guidance. A great read for anyone who is starting out in teaching or just need a refresher on the information that is being used in the classrooms today.

My students love this and is a must for me as a visual timer. I use it at least twice per class per day (even for after school detentions)

I have taught fifth grade for 22 years.  Since finding this book, I have recommended it for my students to retain some of the basics over the summer.  I even offer to order it for them.  Some teachers give extra credit if the student returns this book completed at the end of the summer.  They feel it is that important.  I leave it optional, but I can tell the students that have worked over the summer. This is great for parents that don't know what to study with their children.

I've been using the ideas and strategies in this book with my 7th graders.  They actually like this idea of a daily check-in even if it is very short.  I can tell  they are pressured by their peers to do well, sit quietly and listen to each other which is hard for my students.  I'm so glad I purchased this book and I will use it every year from now on.  It has really helped build a safe environment to share in my classroom.

Really enjoy this as it breaks stuff down that I need to look over and it seems to go along well with my class.

I want to send my thanks to Ondine Gross, author and to Goodreads First Reads Giveaway for the copy of Restore the Respect: How to Mediate School Conflicts and Keep Students Learning that I won in the Giveaway.

Over the many years as a teacher I have sat in a few meditations and had training how to run mediation between students and staff or between staff and another member of the staff. I loved reading Restore the Respect: How to Mediate School Conflicts and Keep Students Learning to update my knowledge on this part of my educator training. The samples of mediation given in the book were very helpful to remember the role of the mediator and how to repeat the positive that comes from both sides to draw them back together and then give them time to plan a way to resume their school relationship. This is a great educator reference and very well written to help educators understand the power of mediation and keeping students focused on learning.

Not only was it a very good textbook, it is a resource that I can use with my students as they approach graduation from high school

I am a teacher and use this book with my students. It is easy to read for students (as evidenced by the fact that they actually do keep up with the reading!) due to the instructional design and how well topics are summarized (not overly wordy). The support materials are also excellent.

I still use this textbook as a reference when doing other class. I decided not to resell it after my class was over so it can't be that bad.

I am in the process of writing my dissertation about the ways in which various colleges of education teach future teachers about using technology in the classroom.  This book has been a great help to me.  In fact, I worry that I'm going to be criticized for citing it too much in my dissertation.  If you teach preservice teachers about technology, which I do, this book is fabulous!

My last semester in my classes to be a teacher my professor read this to us at the end of the term.  Everyone was so inspired from this story since we all worked so hard to get where we were and it was nice to be recognized.  I plan to purchase this book for graduation gifts and when I teach I will read this to my students at the end of the term as well. It is not only inspiring but it is encouraging to keep on going.

I run an after school tutoring program and this book has been very useful to me! I used the charts to help give the kids some structure on how to plan for the writing tasks. I especially liked how the book explained the types of questions that would be asked.
