Waging Peace in Our Schools Paperback - 1998

by Linda Lantieri; Janet Patti

The most prominent activists working in the fields of conflict resolution and emotional literacy argues that schools must educate the heart as well as the mind. This book is a practical guide, filled with stories, voices, ideas and advice. We see teachers using innovative techniques to create "peaceable classrooms", student mediators who are changing the lives of their schools, and the core curricula of conflict resolution and diversity education.


From the publisher

From the largest and most successful school initiatives in social and emotional learning in the country-The Resolving Conflict Creatively Program, now active in more than 350 schools nationwide-comes a powerful, practical guide for teaching young people to empathize, mediate, negotiate, and create peace. The authors address everything from minor schoolyard conflicts to violent outbursts, and offer educators and parents proven strategies for enhancing children's emotional, social, and conflict resolution skills.

Media reviews

A model of emotional intelligence. . . . I hope that every teacher and parent reads this, and takes this superb advice to heart. --Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence

"Parents, educators and counselors need to put this groundbreaking work on their 'must read' lists." --Richard Fields, Professional Counselor

"A convincing argument that public education should nurture not only the minds but the hearts of children." --Chrystal Ingram, Creative Classroom

"More than 70 percent of teachers who've gone through the RCCP training report that there is less physical violence in their classrooms and that their students now exhibit more caring behavior and increased skills in understanding other points of view. . . . The authors do an excellent job of outlining the steps parents can take . . . to create a 'peaceable home.'" --The Washington Post

"Lantieri and Patti bring a passion and insight to their task of illustrating why students fight-and what can be done to stop it." --Nick Chiles, Newark Star Ledger
