Self-Regulation in the Classroom: Helping Students Learn How to Learn (Free Spirit Professional®) First Edition, Book with Digital Content

This book contains a WEALTH of information to get students to reach their potential by learning to focus, avoid meaningless distractions, use proper thinking tools and maintain a confident attitude. The book is based the self-regulation learning model - affect (feelings), behavior (actions), and cognition (thinking). The stages of SRL (self-regulated learner): originate, intervene, support, and release. There are dozens of charts and lists with very practical help for teachers and students. Examples: 8 Strategies for Avoiding Distractions (Students), and 82 Activities That Support Emotional Growth in Students. The chapter that I liked the best was "Setting and Achieving Goals". This is a deep, researched based resource that takes time to read, but is very understandable.

Attended a conference where the author also gave a speech, wonderful and inspirational teacher.
