Document Number: 9820 Making Preschool More Productive: How Classroom Management Training Can Help Teachers - This evaluation of Foundations for Learning found that teachers who were randomly assigned to participate in the program improved the emotional climate of their classrooms and were better able to manage children'’s behavioral challenges.
