IX. Behavior Management Strategies
Rationale:
What you look for, will increase! At this time of year, I realize staff and you get tired of battling the same students when it comes to behavior management, homework, etc... It seems easier for us to step in and try to FIX the situation. We need to reconsider our role, the role of the teacher, and effective strategies for assisting teachers in teaching and reinforcing appropriate behavior as well as correcting inappropriate behavior in our school building and classrooms.
