Help with Inner Wealth Initiative-Classroom Management

I am in a book study group of K-5 educators who are reading The Inner Wealth Initiative by Tom Grove, Howard Glasser and Melissa Block. We are really interested in adopting these strategies in our school. We would like to have information about the sucess of the program from teachers who have actually put the strategies into effect. What was powerful? What worked well and what might you suggest for a school or teacher interested in using the program?

I am hoping that they have teleconferencing capablity so that our group may scedule a teleconferenceh with them. We do have a teacher at McIntosh who has whole-heartedly embraced the Inner Wealth Initiative, using the strategies in her second grade classroom. She is a National Board Accredited Teacher who is also working on her Masters Degree. She has been a strong advocate of the Inner Wealth Initiative and is "spreading the wealth" in our local universities and other educational groups in which she is involved. I have also purchased and read The Difficult Child. I am using the strategies with my granddaughter who skipped a generation and is much like her grammie (me!) Thanks for sharing these powerful strategies.
