"This book provides practical, realistic, and useful guidance to Pre K-5 teachers everywhere. The authors effectively convey the key aspects of brain and bodily functioning that impact on student behavior and the reflections and interactive scenarios help the read put theory into practice. " -- Kellee Oliver"This manuscript digs deeper than the usual classroom behavior books do. With it′s deep dive into brain research, it helps the reader better understand the why behind so many of the behaviors that are seen in the classroom today. I was able to implement many of the strategies immediately into my own classroom. "-- Hope Edlin"With the pressure of test scores, the "why" helps us to address and help students become successful. This book will be very beneficial for teachers to use."-- Stephanie L. Turner"Educators are always asking why students do what they do. We need to ask why. This book will provide practical, realistic and useful guidance for educators. It will allow students to develop progress academically and emotionally in a positive supportive environment. "-- Tamara Daugherty,"Searching for the Why is highly useful, and needed for teachers. The current brain -based research, clear writing style that makes it easy to understand, good real life examples of typical misbehaviors, charts for diagnosing one's own students, and very good advice on preparing for meetings with parents and special education staff is essential for educators in the field."Searching for the Why -- Marcia LeCompte
