Resumen del Editor

From the renowned authority on education and parenting, "an in-depth approach to aid parents and teachers to work together with behaviorally challenging students" (Publishers Weekly) - now revised and updated.

School discipline is broken. Too often, the kids who need our help the most are viewed as disrespectful, out of control, and beyond help, and are often the recipients of our most ineffective, most punitive interventions. These students - and their parents, teachers, and administrators - are frustrated and desperate for answers.

Dr. Ross W. Greene, author of the acclaimed book The Explosive Child, offers educators and parents a different framework for understanding challenging behavior. Dr. Greene's Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) approach helps adults focus on the true factors contributing to challenging classroom behaviors, empowering educators to address these factors and create helping relationships with their most at-risk kids.

This revised and updated edition of Lost at School contains the latest refinements to Dr. Greene's CPS model, including enhanced methods for solving problems collaboratively, improving communication, and building relationships with kids.

Dr. Greene's lively, compelling narrative includes:

• Tools to identify the problems and lagging skills causing challenging behavior
• Explicit guidance on how to radically improve interactions with challenging kids and reduce challenging episodes - along with many examples showing how it's done
• Practical guidance for successful planning and collaboration among educators, parents, and kids

Backed by years of experience and research and written with a powerful sense of hope and achievable change, Lost at School gives teachers and parents the realistic strategies and information to impact the classroom experience of every challenging kid (and their classmates).

This was a very long example of how to use CPS. It was worth listening for me.

excellent resource

I'm a parent of 4 kids, 3 with ADHD diagnoses & each present very differently & struggle with different adhd traits, as well as other ADHD related disorders.
Recently their IEP team wanted to exit 2 of my kids and I said no. I began my research journey over the summer, It's been 10 months now. I've learned a ton but there's so much more. Due to 1 particular EC teacher who I feel is only there b/c of being a coach, I have been working with an advocate to help me prepare for the next IEP meeting. It's important that I get the best IEP in place for all my kids but particularly 1 of them as she goes to HS next year. I want the help she needs in place. You see, my kids are smart. They are able & "capable " of getting good grades and test well.
On the IEP'S I noticed multiple teachers say things like "they are capable of doing the work if they want too", "they can behave well when they choose too".
This just confirms to me that they don't get it. The teachers don't understand the underlying issues and they're not even looking for them. They are putting the blame on the child instead of asking themselves why? Why is this child "choosing"xyz? Why does this child not "want" to do xyz? Instead of digging deeper they just want to say we've done all we can, it's up to them now so they exit them from the IEP. This book digs deeper and explains what is fundamentally lacking. It takes you back to the basics. Before a child can talk you have to teach them what words mean, before that you teach them words, before that you teach them sounds, letters, letter sounds, the use of lip and tongue muscles, etc.
So how can we expect a child to read and complete an assignment if they are lacking in ANY of the SKILLS necessary to complete the task starting with the skill to read, understand all the words, comprehension of words, of task, skills to initiate a plan of attack to reach the end goal. So many skills are needed to get to the finish line of turning in a completed assignment on time and not having mastered anyone of those skills IS a learning disability/difference and the teachers need to be able to recognize the skills lacking and work with the child to acquire and master those missing skills.
I think this book should be a required reading to attain a teaching degree.

Good for this teacher!

This was very helpful to me and I will apply this in my classroom. 8 need a new strategy!

Ground breaking.

critical for any educator that wants to take a hard look at how we work with and help challenging kids.

"How to" eliminate challenging behaviors approach

Great book with a refreshing view and valuable skills/ methods for collaborating with kids that do NJ ot NJ have the proper skills to main te main standard "good behavior ". I am just now going to try and Implement some of the strategies and methods discussed and will return with a more thorough review once I complete said task. Highly recommended for any veteran or newer teacher l, administrator or parent of an unruly child alike . Dr. Greene takes an opposite and noteworthy stance on dealing with children with behavior problems in a less punitive and less-degrading fashion and treats them with not yet having the learned skills or lack of skills like a learning disability and does away with incentive based traditional programs that have proven time and again to NOT work. though there is a time consuming task of recognizing specific behaviors and setting up a plan he coins "Alsip and others" it seems the input work will pay off exponentially as a result. I am excited to put his plan into action and return with a less stressful and mindful approach to behavior modification. Will return with a more detailed review after implementing the strategies with my challenging behavior kiddos once complete. This title is highly recommended . Narration feels repetitive at times but easy to follow and includes real life examples of the plan in action which is very helpful in my opinion. well done Dr. Greene!
