STOP and THINK Learning: Teacher's Guide for Motivating Children
By Lindy Petersen
Stop and Think Learning offers teachers a step-by-step method called STOP THINK DO to motivate children to learn in the classroom. The highly successful method shows children what they can change and then how they can plan what to do to change. Motivation is the key: here is a set of strategies that actively involve the children in a commitment to learn in the busy classroom.
The book also describes the STOP THINK DO method for training social skills and improving relationships in the classroom since a supportive social environment also motivates children to learn through peer support. In a most readable style, the book addresses the challenge of how to motivate all children in the classroom, each with their different histories, different styles and different problems to overcome. A special feature of the book is the programmes catering for particular needs such as:
- The child with specific learning difficulties
- The very bright underachiever
- The child with poor concentration
- The average child with subject weaknesses
- The slow learning child
- The child with a 'difficult' personality
