A positive and calm classroom environment enriches the teaching and learning experience for teachers and children alike. Using his invaluable experience working in pupil referral units and as a head teacher, David Wright shows how the ideal primary classroom environment can be achieved through many useful practical ideas and suggestions.

Backed by up-to-date research on how we learn and how best to teach, the clear and concise chapters cover broad teaching skills including:

how to create a positive learning environment where pupils feel valued, prepared to leave their 'comfort zone', and willing to ask questions
understanding what effects certain aspects of your behaviour can have on children
behaviour management strategies that allow the children to take responsibility for their actions
making the most of colleagues, parents and your community to provide memorable learning experiences.

Written by a teacher for teachers, Classroom Karma is essential reading for all those looking to establish a successful learning environment where pupils feel valued and motivated in the primary classroom and beyond.

Industry Reviews

"Understanding and engaging children and enlivening their learning is at the centre of Wright's approach. He believes that we need to help children ask questions rather than simply give answers, and much of the book is concerned with getting the best behaviour out of potentially difficult children...The upbeat "top tips" approach of Wright is one which many practitioners will like. He walks the talk and separates the learning into digestible chunks." Kevin Harcombe, Headteacher of Redlands School, Fareham in the Times Educational Supplement, 23/06/06
