The materials on this website are based in over 30 years of working
in classrooms, running statewide programs, and assisting others
with children who have behaviors that impede their learning or that
of others. Over 30 years of inservice presentations, teachers lounge
conversations, grade level meetings and attending seminars have
accumulated in my brain; unfortunately, I do not remember the source
for many of these great ideas. That is why everything on this website
is completely free. I'm trying to pay it forward for all the people
who helped me to become a better educator. My thanks go out to all
the people who were my "teachers".

This is a sample book list I began back in

a positive light to use for discussions with children. If you have

Building
Positive Behavior Support Systems in Schools: Functional Behavioral
Assessment by Crone & Horner |
The
Gift Of ADHD: How To Transform Your Child's Problems Into Strengths
by Lara Honos-Webb |
| I
use this book in my Applied Behavior Analysis for Classroom Teachers
Course. It's one of my favorite books. |
We
tell educators and parents that the most important discussion at a
behavior support team planning session should be to discuss the student's
strengths. I love this book because it focuses on the strengths of
ADHD. Coincidentally, I believe many teachers have ADHD because it
is a profession that allows them to do two things at once. Which is
a strength of ADHD. |
