In this newly released edition of Managing the Cycle of Acting-Out Behavior in the Classroom, authors Geoff Colvin and Terrance M. Scott present a system for understanding acting-out behavior in terms of seven phases and correcting it before it gets in the way of student engagement and learning.

This newly updated edition draws on the latest research to deliver a clear roadmap for educators to assess acting-out behavior and to design effective interventions in a clear, systematic, and achievable manner. The book includes a number of checklists, tools, resources and templates to help educators bring these practices into the classroom. 

First grade teacher Amy Owsley at Clear Creek Elementary in Shelbyville, Kentucky says: 

"This book is a must-have resource for any classroom teacher in today's school setting. The authors have translated decades of behavioral research into teacher relevant language and provided real-world examples of how the behavioral support concepts and strategies work."
