J. Allen Queen and Bob Algozzine's Responsible Classroom Management, Grades K-5 provides principals and teachers with a nationally tested, schoolwide discipline plan that emphasizes a team approach to discipline and management, and teaches students to solve problems, self-correct behavior, and develop internal controls. Rooted in humanist and cognitive psychology, the book's practical approach for responsible classroom management (RCM) is designed specifically for children in a wide range of development from kindergarten through Fifth Grade. The RCM plan presents three key principles to demonstrate how schools can use behavior support systems to promote good citizenship and develop responsible children who can live productively in a democratic and multicultural society. The three principles are: Responsibility is taught and incorporated instructionally within a warm and inviting classroomStandards, guidelines, and expected behaviors replace rigid school and classroom rulesConsequences are used to teach students to self-correct inappropriate behaviors and assume responsibility for their actions
