I believe that there is a difference when dealing with discipline as a teacher compared to being the parent. There are boundaries that exist for a reason, and as a teacher, you don't know the whole story or situation that each individual child may be dealing with.

I believe that discipline is different, however, should it be? If we are saying that positive reinforcement and consequences are the best way to teach expected behaviors, why would that change? I understand that the consequences can be different, but in theory the discipline "process" should be the same.

# data[].attributes.body
Discussions and modeling definitely help students understand the expectations.

# data[].attributes.body
Most often positive reinforcement and consequences teach expected behaviors. Having student voice helping to determine consequences also increases accountability and responsibility.

# data[].attributes.body
What you focus on is where you go! Positive reinforcement breeds more of the behavior that warranted the positive reinforcement. Modeling expected behaviors and explicitly teaching/showing students what that looks like goes a long way.

# data[].attributes.body
Of course. The rolls of parents and teachers are different. Teachers are not their student's parents.

Restorative practice is another option.

I think positive reinforcement is the best. However, it is also imortant to teach natural concequences for their actions.

Positive reinforsment is less likely to discourage students from behaving well in the future.

Positive Reinforcement is the most effective option, but students also need to learn that there are consequences to behavior. Failure to learn this lesson may leave them unprepared for life outside of school.

It's how we teach behaviors through encouragement and demonstration

Positive reinforcement and consequences guide students in learning the misbehavior. They are encouraged to fix the issue and learn from it. Punishment just causes resentment and loss of productivity.

We should teach children using positive reinforcement. I have seen that positive reinforcement yields more positive behaviors.

# data[].attributes.body
Discipline in both school and home settings can look similar if parents and teachers are working together and using the same strategies.  The techniques of positive reinforcement and natural consequences can be effective in both settings (home and school).  Parents are a child's number 1 teacher so what they do may have a greater overall impact on behavior.

# data[].attributes.body
I find that taking taking the time to connect/build relationships with students improves the likelihood that they will want to behave or take direction from me.  Positive reinforcement helps with this process.  Connect then direct.

Use positive reinforcement as much as possible, followed by natural consequences. Punishment should be avoided as much as possible.

It seems that the most effective methods are positive reinforcement and natural consequences.  These are the methods I choose to use to help teach children.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, discipline is different for a parent and a teacher. I believe expectations are similar in what we want for the student but boundaries, influences and our roles are different and therefore we can receive different outcomes from the student based on those differences.

# data[].attributes.body
I definitely believe RP can work. I also believe in having one on one conversations with the student and getting to the bottom of the matter and help guide the child from there.

# data[].attributes.body
We should use a mixture of positive reinforcement and consequences. While I do think we should avoid punishment it may be necessary in some cases.

Focus on positive reinforcement first and move towards consequences if needed. Try to avoid punishment.

# data[].attributes.body
I think always starting in the positive mode is the best practice possible. Natural consequences (such as a poor grade or a friend doesn't want to play a game with them because of being a poor sport) are a good lesson for students to understand how their behavior has an impact.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that positive reinforcement is the best way to achieve positive behavior. Teaching students exactly what we expect from them and praising them when they do it, is always the best option for students.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that boundaries are very different in the home and school settings. Parents and teachers can work together to ensure the behaviors are appropriate in both settings. Establishing these joint efforts can greatly help the student understand what is appropriate across all environments.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think every poor action deserves a reaction or a punishment. I'm so over seeing kids sitting in the office and missing recess as a punishment. Is that really the best we can do?? Didn't we hire more SEL support? Why aren't we implementing better practices? This doesn't make sense to me at all.

# data[].attributes.body
In theory, no. But parents may have different boundaries at home. As teachers we do.

# data[].attributes.body
Giving the students a voice in the classroom expectations and consequences may help. They may take ownership of their behavior.

# data[].attributes.body
A combination of all 3 will work, sticking to the positives and diving into the consequeneces of such behaviors.

# data[].attributes.body
Positive reinforcement is what works best, but consequences can help support your reasoning for practicing the positive behaviors.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes it is different but both should still focus on positive reinforcement and consequences.

# data[].attributes.body
Talking with the students can often help with clear explanations as to why their are certain rules.

# data[].attributes.body
We should try to use positive reinforcement and consequences and avoid punishment if at all possible.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe use of positive reinforcement would be the best way to start followed by use of consequences.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that using all three is important. Positive reinforcement should be used every day, reminding students what they should be doing and rewarding students for good choices and behaviors. Consequences should be used when needed, to help remind students that there are consequences to their actions and that their choices determines the consequences they receive. Lastly, punishment should be used sparingly but as needed. If students are not responding to the consequences of their actions or striving for positive reinforcement and there is a consistent problem, it is important to show that there are boundaries that cannot be crossed. It's still important in my opinion though, to hit on that positive reinforcement after the punishment to remind students what they should be doing. Punishments should always fit the misbehavior and should be used as a last effort after positive reinforcement and consequences have been established to no avail.

My thoughts are use what's effective-Always utilize positive reinforcement to strengthen the behaviors you want repeated. Allowing natural consequences to occur can be a teachable moment in itself. Punishment can be considered if other methods aren't effective in changing or modifying a behavior.

Talking to the student in real time is effective, however not always possible. (Laura Orlowski)

I think it's situational, based on patterns of behavior, and also on the background of the child (i.e. home life, past grade levels, etc.) (Laura Orlowski)

# data[].attributes.body
I think teaching children that positive results can come from certain behaviors, and also natural consequences that are a result of certain other behaviors is important.  I feel as though consequences help establish boundaries for kids and actually empower them (although that probably sounds strange).  If a child makes a not so great choice despite fully knowing that there is a consequence for making that choice, then responsibility falls on the child, and hopefully they learn that they are in control of the decisions they make, and strive to make more positive decisions going forward. (Laura Orlowski)

# data[].attributes.body
Absolutely it's different.

# data[].attributes.body
I think some sort of combination of all three can be used depending on the behavior.

# data[].attributes.body
I think we should use a combination of positive reinforcement and consequences because that's real life. Sometimes there are consequences to actions good and/or bad. Obviously we would all strive to use positive reinforcement as much as possible but that just isn't always a reality.

# data[].attributes.body
Of course. We don't have the teacher boundary with our own children.

# data[].attributes.body
I think one on one talks with students in the moment can be effective as well as reaching out during passing times to establish relationships. Reaching out to parents as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I think we need all three. Punishment is necessary if a student is endangering others. I guess you could couch it in language as "consequence."

Positive reinforcement is obviously the best choice. I think I tend to focus on consequences most.

That is where I always struggle with my thought process when it comes to teaching expected behaviors, whether for my kids or my kids at school. For me, the bottom line is that I always try to be fair. This means helping them to see that all behaviors have consequences, which could be positive or negative.

It is, however, I think it can be very similar. I think it's helpful to think in the same terms that positive reinforcement is the primary form of teaching behaviors, with consequences coming in second. As a parent, punishment is a last resort for those times that are so serious they call for it. I do also agree that punishment should never be physically or mentally harmful to the child.
