A Teaching Heart

About the Book

Classroom management, cultural diversity, and parenting are vitally important in teaching and learning. It is crucial to understand how effective classroom management can be maintained for students and teachers. The necessity of understanding and teaching cultural diversity that assist teachers and students in valuing individuals and groups creates a forum for acceptance and appreciation for those that are different and similar in ethnic orientation, religion, social, and economic status. Along with understanding classroom management and cultural diversity in the learning environment is addressing parenting concerns for parent and student relationships in families and schools. Parenting in America is always challenging, sometimes frustrating, often rewarding, and continuously experiencing new situations for coping in a world that is different from the one most of us grew up in as children.
