Inhaltsangabe

One of the few research-based resources to explore the effect of temperament on educational experience, this book shows readers how individual temperaments of students and teachers influence behavior and achievement. Filled with classroom examples described in everyday language, Temperament in the Classroom helps general and special educators, school psychologists, social workers, counselors, and administrators understand

• the impact of temperament on children's behavior, interactions, and achievement



• the effect of temperament on teachers'; perceptions, decisions, and attributions



• the importance of "goodness of fit" between a child's temperament and school environment



• temperament in students with learning disabilities, developmental delays, and ADHD



• methods of assessing temperament, including interviews, observations, and rating scales or questionnaires

Perfect for professionals at the preschool, elementary, and middle school levels, this book will help readers become aware of their own temperament, recognize the differences in temperament among students, and use this knowledge to improve classroom interactions and outcomes.
