Insightful strategies for reaching and teaching our "porcupines"-those students who struggle in school and challenge us most.

Deep down, we know they're the ones who actually need extra love and support instead of timeouts or trips to the principal's office. In Hugging Porcupines. , veteran educator Mike Anderson offers practical strategies for supporting these porcupines so they can be as successful as possible, both in school and beyond. Anderson walks readers month-by-month through the school year, sharing strategies for setting up routines at the start of school, getting back on track after holiday breaks, and finishing strong.

Maintain, and even build, relationships through effective discipline. Connect with porcupines' families. Foster porcupines' interpersonal skills. Facilitate effective problem-solving conferences. Support new students when they arrive mid-year. Support students' transition to the next year. Hugging Porcupines. will deepen K-12 teachers' understanding of why porcupines struggle academically and behaviorally in school and equip them to provide more appropriate support.
