CLASSROOM SCHEDULE




Write out your classroom schedule here.
Brainstorm—Rewriting Commands
Rewrite the following ineffective commands into positive, clear, respectful commands.


           Ineffective Commands                                  Rewrite


  •   Shut up

  •   Quit shouting

  •   Stop running

  •   Watch it

  •   Why don’t you put that away?

  •   Let’s clean up the blocks

  •   Cut it out

  •   What is your coat doing there?

  •   Why is your backpack there?

  •   Don’t push him like a bull

  •   Why is your book still on your desk?

  •   You look like a mess

  •   Stop bugging your friend

  •   You are never ready

  •   You must stop touching her in circle time

  •   Your desk is a mess

  •   Don’t whine
  •   You are impossible

  •   Stop dawdling

  •   Hurry up
  •   Be quiet

  •   Why are you out of your seat when you’ve
      been told not to?
  •   What are you doing bothering your
      friend?
      •   Are you stupid?
Buzz—Goals for Classroom Discipline
Think about what you want to accomplish with your discipline and what you
want to avoid.
	      	      	      	
      What you want to accomplish                    What you want to avoid
Brainstorm/Buzz—Ways to Stay Calm
When you first start ignoring misbehavior, the behavior will get worse before it gets bet-
ter. It is important to be prepared to wait out this negative period. If you give into the
oppositional behavior, this behavior will be reinforced and your student will learn
that by protesting loudly, he or she can get his/her own way.

It is important to stay calm while ignoring. Try to think ahead and brainstorm ways to remain
calm when ignoring misbehavior.




    Ways to Stay Calm While Ignoring

    deep breaths

    relaxation techniques

    positive thoughts

    walk away

    turn on some music




    Remember, all young children argue and protest to get what they want. This is not personal
    but a reflection of their strive to be independent and to test the rules.


    Goal: I will commit to tell myself the following________________________
    ___________________________________________________________________

    ___________________________________________________________________

    when my student protests.
Brainstorm/Buzz—Behaviors to Ignore
Behaviors such as pouting, sulking, screaming, swearing, and arguing are good
candidates for ignoring yourself and for helping other students ignore. These
behaviors are annoying, but they never really seem to hurt anyone, and the behaviors will
disappear if they are systematically ignored. The ignoring technique should not be used,
however, with behaviors that could lead to physical injury, property damage, or intolerable
disruption of an ongoing activity.

Sometimes teachers find it hard to control their anger when dealing with misbehavior,
and find it tempting to criticize the student. This emotional involvement can make it
difficult to ignore your student’s arguments or to praise compliance when it finally does occur.
However, ignoring is one of the most effective strategies you can use, especially if you can
teach other students to ignore as well.

  Child Behaviors I Will Ignore

  e.g., whining

  tantrums




    Goal: I will commit to ignoring _____________________________________

    behavior whenever it occurs. I will praise _______________________________

    behavior, the positive opposite of the behavior I am ignoring.
Using Selective Ignoring
Sometimes, children will show positive and negative behaviors during the same activity. For example,
a child might follow directions (positive behavior) while whining or rolling their eyes (negative at-
titude). Selective ignoring is the technique where a teacher praises or rewards the part of the behavior
that is positive while ignoring the negative behavior. For example, a teacher might praise the child
for following directions, and pay no attention to the whining or negative attitude. This way, the child
learns that she will receive positive attention for some behaviors, but will not receive attention for
other behavior (e.g., arguing).

Brainstorm/Buzz
Think about some situations where this kind of selective ignoring could be effective.




  When Would Selective Ignoring be Effective?

  e.g., when child is following directions but giving me “attitude” at the same time, I will
  praise his compliance and ignore his attitude.




    Goal: I will commit to praising ______________________________________
    behavior while ignoring _____________________________________________

    behavior.
Brainstorm/Buzz Staying Calm & Managing Anger
Rewrite the following negative self-talk with positive coping thoughts.


              Negative Self-Talk                            Positive Coping Thoughts

  • I can’t stand this—it’s too hard!

  • I don’t know what to do.

  • Ignoring will never work.

  • I am losing control and will explode
    soon.

  • I am going to hit her—it’s the only way
    to get her to stop.

  • It’s awful to let him disrespect me. It’s
    not good to look weak in front of
    my students.

  • I hate being disrespected.

  • I’m a terrible teacher.

  • She will never change.

  • It’s just not fair, this child should not be
    in my classroom.

  • I can’t let him challenge my authority.

  • This is ridiculous, I have too many stu-
    dents.

  • He hurt me so I should hurt him.

  • I don’t like him when he’s like this.

  • His parents don’t care, so why should I?
Brainstorm/Buzz Staying Calm & Managing Anger
Continued, from previous page.


             Negative Self-Talk                     Positive Coping Thoughts

 • The principal will complain if I don’t get
   this stopped.


 • She will never stop hitting. It’s her fault.


 • A little more force on my part will stop
   her.


 • That brat knows how much this bugs
   me—he’s doing it on purpose.


 • I’m an inept teacher—should never have
   done this job.


 • I can’t let her get away with that.


 • It’s all the principal’s fault for giving me a
   class with this many problems.


 • It’s all his parents’ fault for not teaching
   their children how to behave.




   Goal: I will commit to stopping and challenging my
   negative self-talk and working on practicing using coping
   and positive self- talk as well as giving myself time to
   calm down.
Brainstorm/Buzz Coping and Calming Self-Talk
Think about ways to stay calm, assertive and patient when using Time Out.

Practice challenging negative self-talk and substituting positive self-talk and coping
statements. On your notepad, write down some self-talk that you can use when
you feel anger mounting.


  Positive Self-Talk

  I can handle this…

  I can control my anger…

  I will take a brief Time Out myself…




                               Challenge irrational thoughts
Brainstorm/Buzz Staying Calm
What emotional responses do you experience when using Time Out? Teachers often
have trouble controlling their anger when dealing with a child’s aggression or oppositional
behavior, and find it hard not to criticize the child. This emotional involvement can make it
difficult to ignore your student’s arguments or to praise compliance when it finally does occur.
What strategies could you use to stay calm? Write them on your notepad.

  • 4. Brainstorm/Buzz—Reward Yourself! Think about rewarding yourself. Have you ever used an incentive system to reward yourself for accomplishing difficult tasks or goals, like completing lesson plans, or working hard as a teacher? Think about ways you could reward yourself for your hard work as a teacher. Good Incentives for Me A walk in the park Tea/coffee with a teacher colleague Buy myself a good book Goal: I will commit to doing something positive for myself this week. This will include: __________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________
  • 5. CLASSROOM SCHEDULE Write out your classroom schedule here.
  • 6. Brainstorm—Rewriting Commands Rewrite the following ineffective commands into positive, clear, respectful commands. Ineffective Commands Rewrite • Shut up • Quit shouting • Stop running • Watch it • Why don’t you put that away? • Let’s clean up the blocks • Cut it out • What is your coat doing there? • Why is your backpack there? • Don’t push him like a bull • Why is your book still on your desk? • You look like a mess • Stop bugging your friend • You are never ready • You must stop touching her in circle time • Your desk is a mess • Don’t whine • You are impossible • Stop dawdling • Hurry up • Be quiet • Why are you out of your seat when you’ve been told not to? • What are you doing bothering your friend? • Are you stupid?
  • 7. Buzz—Goals for Classroom Discipline Think about what you want to accomplish with your discipline and what you want to avoid. What you want to accomplish What you want to avoid
  • 8. Brainstorm/Buzz—Ways to Stay Calm When you first start ignoring misbehavior, the behavior will get worse before it gets bet- ter. It is important to be prepared to wait out this negative period. If you give into the oppositional behavior, this behavior will be reinforced and your student will learn that by protesting loudly, he or she can get his/her own way. It is important to stay calm while ignoring. Try to think ahead and brainstorm ways to remain calm when ignoring misbehavior. Ways to Stay Calm While Ignoring deep breaths relaxation techniques positive thoughts walk away turn on some music Remember, all young children argue and protest to get what they want. This is not personal but a reflection of their strive to be independent and to test the rules. Goal: I will commit to tell myself the following________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ when my student protests.
  • 9. Brainstorm/Buzz—Behaviors to Ignore Behaviors such as pouting, sulking, screaming, swearing, and arguing are good candidates for ignoring yourself and for helping other students ignore. These behaviors are annoying, but they never really seem to hurt anyone, and the behaviors will disappear if they are systematically ignored. The ignoring technique should not be used, however, with behaviors that could lead to physical injury, property damage, or intolerable disruption of an ongoing activity. Sometimes teachers find it hard to control their anger when dealing with misbehavior, and find it tempting to criticize the student. This emotional involvement can make it difficult to ignore your student’s arguments or to praise compliance when it finally does occur. However, ignoring is one of the most effective strategies you can use, especially if you can teach other students to ignore as well. Child Behaviors I Will Ignore e.g., whining tantrums Goal: I will commit to ignoring _____________________________________ behavior whenever it occurs. I will praise _______________________________ behavior, the positive opposite of the behavior I am ignoring.
  • 10. Using Selective Ignoring Sometimes, children will show positive and negative behaviors during the same activity. For example, a child might follow directions (positive behavior) while whining or rolling their eyes (negative at- titude). Selective ignoring is the technique where a teacher praises or rewards the part of the behavior that is positive while ignoring the negative behavior. For example, a teacher might praise the child for following directions, and pay no attention to the whining or negative attitude. This way, the child learns that she will receive positive attention for some behaviors, but will not receive attention for other behavior (e.g., arguing). Brainstorm/Buzz Think about some situations where this kind of selective ignoring could be effective. When Would Selective Ignoring be Effective? e.g., when child is following directions but giving me “attitude” at the same time, I will praise his compliance and ignore his attitude. Goal: I will commit to praising ______________________________________ behavior while ignoring _____________________________________________ behavior.
  • 11. Brainstorm/Buzz Staying Calm & Managing Anger Rewrite the following negative self-talk with positive coping thoughts. Negative Self-Talk Positive Coping Thoughts • I can’t stand this—it’s too hard! • I don’t know what to do. • Ignoring will never work. • I am losing control and will explode soon. • I am going to hit her—it’s the only way to get her to stop. • It’s awful to let him disrespect me. It’s not good to look weak in front of my students. • I hate being disrespected. • I’m a terrible teacher. • She will never change. • It’s just not fair, this child should not be in my classroom. • I can’t let him challenge my authority. • This is ridiculous, I have too many stu- dents. • He hurt me so I should hurt him. • I don’t like him when he’s like this. • His parents don’t care, so why should I?
  • 12. Brainstorm/Buzz Staying Calm & Managing Anger Continued, from previous page. Negative Self-Talk Positive Coping Thoughts • The principal will complain if I don’t get this stopped. • She will never stop hitting. It’s her fault. • A little more force on my part will stop her. • That brat knows how much this bugs me—he’s doing it on purpose. • I’m an inept teacher—should never have done this job. • I can’t let her get away with that. • It’s all the principal’s fault for giving me a class with this many problems. • It’s all his parents’ fault for not teaching their children how to behave. Goal: I will commit to stopping and challenging my negative self-talk and working on practicing using coping and positive self- talk as well as giving myself time to calm down.
  • 13. Brainstorm/Buzz Coping and Calming Self-Talk Think about ways to stay calm, assertive and patient when using Time Out. Practice challenging negative self-talk and substituting positive self-talk and coping statements. On your notepad, write down some self-talk that you can use when you feel anger mounting. Positive Self-Talk I can handle this… I can control my anger… I will take a brief Time Out myself… Challenge irrational thoughts
  • 14. Brainstorm/Buzz Staying Calm What emotional responses do you experience when using Time Out? Teachers often have trouble controlling their anger when dealing with a child’s aggression or oppositional behavior, and find it hard not to criticize the child. This emotional involvement can make it difficult to ignore your student’s arguments or to praise compliance when it finally does occur. What strategies could you use to stay calm? Write them on your notepad. My emotional responses when Strategies to stay calm giving Time Out
