Describe one or two discipline policies in place in your classroom or at your school that adhere to the model discussed in this lesson. Have they been effective?
-
We have a demerit system at our school that works very well to hold students accountable for their actions. Points are given based on the severity of the action. We have a cell phone policy as well. No cell phones are allowed, and if they are taken during class by a teacher, a parent has to come pick up the phone. It has really helped to keep the kids focused this year.
-
In every classroom in my school, there are rules and regulations governing the conduct of students. Students are disciplined in love to demonstrate Christ’s traits in whatever they do. Train up a child in the way he /she go, when he/she grows up, he/she will not depart from it
-
Our school utilizes restorative classroom management. School and classroom expectations, rules, and consequences are clearly explained and modeled to students. Our class rules are: honor God, respect authority, and be kind to others. All behaviors and actions fall within these. Yes, these policies have been effective.
-
In my class students don’t make fun of other students’ artwork, if they do that, they are being punished.
-
Racism and physical violence of any sort are not tolerated and immediately are referred to the office. A lot of other disciplinary issues we try to solve in class with seating changes, re-teaching the expectations, having classwide discussions, or direct teaching on why we don’t say x, y, and z. I try to move on and not hold it against students who act out, and we begin with a clean slate each day.
