Responses by Kari Dunn Buron and Mitzi Curtis

In this must-have
resource, “two teachers from Minnesota” share their successful
use of the simple concept of 5-point scales to help students understand
and control their emotional reactions to everyday events that might otherwise
set in emotion escalating reactions. Whether it is inappropriate touching,
obsessions, yelling, hitting or making hurtful statements to classmates,
this clearly illustrated book shows how to break down a given behavior
and, with the student’s active participation, develop a unique scale
that identifies the problem and, just as important, suggests alternative,
positive behaviors at each level of the scale.
