I will continue to build relationships with my students so that we can continue building that bond that makes them feel safe and loved. I think this is such a crucial part of being in the educational field that is sometimes overlooked. I believe you need that bond before you can effectively teach. Sometimes this is the only place these kids can feel that kind of safety.

I've been more aware of the wording I use when noticing positive behavior. In the classroom and also in the hallways.

# data[].attributes.body
I have begun implementing the dismissal strategy outlined at the workshop before we head to lunch and it is proceeding with some noticeable success. After I choose the first student showing they’re ready, I allow them to choose the next classmate that is ready. The second student then calls the third and the third, the fourth and so on…we have yet to make it to the 18th student before it breaks down, but we’re getting close. I also realized that not all the students know each other’s names.

1. Go at the pace with which you are comfortable.

2. Experimenting with one or two strategies.

3. All students belong. All students can succeed.

# data[].attributes.body
I will continue to share control with students (and colleagues) that results in positive interaction and collaboration so that autonomy and student learning are the outcomes

.

It is ok at the beginning of the year to take the time to establish your classroom climate and expectations. Do not try to go faster than prescribed (pg.22).

One of the most ineffective means of eliciting positive behaviors is a behavior chart.

# data[].attributes.body
Trying to work on control sharing.

# data[].attributes.body
One specific action I will take moving forward is continuing to enforce my classroom jobs, giving over this control to my students, and holding them accountable to their job expectations.

# data[].attributes.body
Continue to work on the relationship building and I need to become more comfortable with the shared control and understanding that it will actually make less work for me.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the Real World Workshop and have begun implementing it into my classroom. Having the conversation with students about the importance of “nows” and how they are applicable to adults was so powerful.

# data[].attributes.body
My next steps are to continue practicing Strategic Noticing so that it become second nature. A second action that I take will be to stop denying the opportunity for students to deal with conflict with others. This is not real world and will not live a life free from conflict.

# data[].attributes.body
I work on ways to share control with students.

# data[].attributes.body
Moving forward, I would like to incorporate nows and laters. Allowing my students to participate in a preferred activity when finished with academic work!

My next step is to assign jobs to my kids. I think this is actually be a really fun step that they would love to take ownership in helping with!

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to implement more control-sharing strategies and create jobs.

# data[].attributes.body
One action step I have started is Real World Workshop in reading, writing, math, and social/emotional. We are still in the early stages, but we have high expectations.

# data[].attributes.body
Moving forward, I want to work harder on relationship building and asking more open ended questions to children. Instead of saying "please go get your book and do your morning work", saying "what is your expectation right now?" to hold kids more accountable. Shifting my words to be more intentional has been a game changer.

# data[].attributes.body
I am looking forward to reading more in the next chapter about relationship building as configuring a classroom is not applicable to my current job as an interventionist.

# data[].attributes.body
I am going to work with my kids on the jobs list and the lock-it-in and focus on giving more control away and noticing good behaviors.

# data[].attributes.body
I will continue reading the book, implementing ideas and divesting ownership of "jobs" in my classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
I will continue my progress in adding these strategies to my instruction and classroom. I plan to add more practice and emphasis on my limit setting statements to make them more fluent.

# data[].attributes.body
I have been using the "sending students to the back of the line" strategy when they are not following line/hallway expectations. My students went from being chatty kathy's in the hallway to completely silent. It has been a complete lifesaver.

My next step moving forward is working on creating jobs in my classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
I"m continuing to add stragegies into my daily practice, Strategic Noticing, Questioning, Limit-Setting Statements/Shared Control. Also I want to focus on making sure that students understand the inherent consequences built into classroom procedures (and that I create those PLOs).

# data[].attributes.body
I want to be better at following through with PLO plans that I am discussing with my students when I tell them that we will learn more about that later - ex. making SURE to practice 'sitting on the rug' later, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
I will continue to build positive relationships with my students and start to give my students more control over classroom procedures.

# data[].attributes.body
More positive reinforcement in the classroom! Not pointing out the negative as much.

# data[].attributes.body
My next action step is to be consistent with strategic noticing and letting go of control... Being more consistent in holding students accountable for the consequences that are naturally embedded into procedures is a big goal of mine!

# data[].attributes.body
I want to focus more on share control strategies and building those relationships with positive and negative consequences while holding them accountable for their actions.

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to creat a posted visual for a list of strategies so I can refer to it as I teach.

# data[].attributes.body
I will continue to not focus on behaviors and focus on building relationships.

# data[].attributes.body
I am anxious to read more about the relationship building strategies as those have served me well in the past. I will also try to configure teams as practice.

# data[].attributes.body
One specific action that I will take moving forward is to create my "teams" and establish those teams in my classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
I will continue building relationships that are not behavior dependent, finding new ways to connect with students. Giving each student a clean slate at the start of each day/year.

# data[].attributes.body
One specific action I will take moving forward is that I will be more consistent and challenge my thoughts about 'those students'. Instead of bracing for impact, I will try to release some control of the room in order to share the environment and foster engagement.

# data[].attributes.body
Create smaller units within the classroom to make for stronger sense of belonging for all.

# data[].attributes.body
I may play with the configuration of my classroom and teams in the third trimester. :)

# data[].attributes.body
Continue working on building relationships and fiddle with configuration.

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to improve on my relationship building with certain students. I have noticed when I have a close relationship with a student, they behave better.

# data[].attributes.body
As a new teacher I find myself wanting to do too much all at once. I need to make a

conscious effort to give myself grace and know that I can’t teach them everything that I want to in a short period of time. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and I need to remind myself of that.

Another way that I will challenge my thinking is to be open to the content that will be presented in this book. There are topics and concepts that I may or may not want to implement into my classroom and I will be open minded to this.
