Title: Meeting students where they live
Description: "Motivation and hope are two items in short supply in many urban schools." Based on input from teachers across the United States and on his own personal experiences, Richard L. Curwin offers suggestion that every school can use to keep students in the classroom. He urges teachers and administrators in urban schools to move away from a focus on control, uniformity, lack of tolerance, and iron-clad rules toward an approach based on compassion, understanding, tolerance, and safety for all.--[book cover]
