Staff ‘Behavior Strategy’ Ideas that have worked…
-
“ We review our rules/expectations in our classroom. It helps to clarify boundaries”
- “When the behavior is really bad, I have the student who is misbehaving write an essay on what they did wrong, why it was wrong and what they can do instead of the behavior”
- “I interrupt the problem behavior by calling on the student to answer a question”
- “Sometimes I let natural peer consequences take place. I am surprised how much other students dislike peers misbehaving in class”
- “I approach the student(s) in private about their behavior”
- “I tend to see misbehaviors when students do not understand the material and they are to work independently. Therefore, before letting them work alone, we do a verbal walk through of the material just taught”
