One brain break is tossing a beach ball around the room asking questions for review or standing up and doing a 5 minute body stretch. ]]> 2021-04-01 19:45:31 UTC https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376619216 daisy_whitenack https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376631635 Creating the classroom rules with students is an effective way for behavior management because it allows students to have a voice, work together as a class community and establish clear expectations for the rest of the year. ]]> 2021-04-01 19:50:36 UTC https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376631635 daisy_whitenack https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376647904 ClassDojo is a great way to show students where they are at as a class with their behavior. I would display this for students to see and reward them with additional minutes of free choice time when they work together to get their points to a certain level. ]]> 2021-04-01 19:56:52 UTC https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376647904 daisy_whitenack https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376673487 A clip chart is a good tool to learn to manage student behavior.

This method is great for giving students that need it extra attention and time to help them have good days and prepare them for learning. ]]> 2021-04-01 20:11:25 UTC https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376683082 daisy_whitenack https://padlet.com/daisy_whitenack/pngrkpeb9uq46ind/wish/1376758266 Cultivating a culture that values and supports kindness is very important.
