Truth spoken the first minute of this video!!! It helps to have strong relationships, teach all routines and procedures, family communication, being calm and collective, not cluttered, organized, and students know what to do and then they stay calm and organized too
I LOVE everything you share! Literally spent the week binge watching your videos lol!! I'm moving from Kinder to First grade this year so your tips and advice are helping me. Thanks soooo much for sharing! You're amazing!
I'm glad you said that about the office. I went back into the classroom last year after being an Enrichment teacher for 6 years. It was tough. But I'm just not a fan of sending kids to the office unless there was violence or something extremely inappropriate was said (that did happen last year). Other teachers sent kids to the office a lot more than I did and I wondered if maybe I should have been doing that, but I'm glad I didn't. I feel like they had even less control over those students because they were constantly sending them to the office. I'm looking forward to reading about logical consequences!
