    I set my guidelines up very clearly at the beginning of the year and we discuss the consequences. I stress that the consequences are not punishment but the result of a bad choice made by them. For example, if they continually talk while the teacher or another student who is sharing is talking, then it would result in an email home and missing a set amount of time of recess.

    We have an academic honesty policy that we expect students to adhere to – it is natural for students to want to cheat and copy off of each other – it’s easier and if they can get away with it, less work. However, we talk about being right before God and right before their teacher and making sure that they are honest that all the work that they submit are completely their own. At least holding up to that standard is important and then reading their work thoroughly ensures that they are honoring the policy and shows that what they read is important.

    From the beginning of the year I stress the importance of students following directions to ensure all students can perform the best they can in class. I am working on making sure students know there will be specific consequences for their actions.

    I work at the beginning of the year to ensure all students understand the expectations and provide a clear path to meet those expectations. I am working on utilizing more consistent consequences. I try to have the child reflect upon why they broke a rule and how they can work to do better next time.

    My personal discipline policy adheres to the lesson model in that it is designed to correct, not to punish. There are very clear guidelines and consequences, which helps students feel secure and empower them to make the right choice. When consequences are required, there is no attempt to shame the students, and I always engage in a conversation as to why the discipline was required. I also often reassure students that these actions and consequences do not affect the way that I care for them, and that there is a fresh start to be had tomorrow.
