The student wants their feelings validated. When the teacher shows empathy towards the student, the student feels understood.

Elementary students are still trying to understand the appropriate avenues to express their feelings. When a teacher talks to them to discuss what is happening, the student feels the empathy from the teacher.

It is appropriate for a second grade class because at this age students are still learning to show their emotions probably. When the student knows that the teacher understands and will help them work through the issue, it allows the student to feel that they are being understood.]]> 2017-09-24 18:02:43 UTC https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190596107 anhorvath86 https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190600061 Example: During individual assignments or group discussions, the teacher should be walking around the class instead of staying stationary.

Walking around the class allows the teacher to keep talking between classmates to lessen. Student to student discussions at inappropriate times will lessen when the teacher comes near.

This is appropriate for a second grade class because students can be easily distracted and pulled into a conversation with their neighbor. By walking around the room, a teacher can walk by a students desk and either they will quiet down immediately or the teacher may have to rap on the desk as he or she is instructing. On the first day of school the teacher can let the students know that if he or she raps on their desk while she is teaching, it means no talking. ]]> 2017-09-24 18:31:42 UTC https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190600061 anhorvath86 https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190600623 Example: Student names will be clipped onto the behavior chart starting on green every morning. They will either move up or done on the chart depending upon behavior in the classroom. Moving up on the chart is from positive behavior. Moving down on the chart is from negative behavior. Negative behaviors have the consequence of a note home or a phone call to the children's parents. Positive behaviors can lead to being entered in a weekly drawing.

Placing the behavior chart at the front of the class allows all the students to see where they are doing for the day.

This is appropriate for a second grade class because they can sometimes forget themselves. By having the behavior management chart visible at the front of the class, it becomes a daily reminder to be on their best behavior.]]> 2017-09-24 18:36:01 UTC https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190600623 anhorvath86 https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190602476 Example: The mornings can be hard to wrangle the students into classroom learning mode. Teachers can place morning riddles that are age appropriate on their white boards starting with the first day of school. The students will come in and follow the instructions to answer the riddle.

This type of action starts a pattern of behavior of what the students are expected to do from day one. It is a fun activity that also teaches them to get started on learning right away.

It is appropriate by coming up with age appropriate riddles to have the students work on. Students need to know that learning can be fun.]]> 2017-09-24 18:49:19 UTC https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190602476 anhorvath86 https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190602505 Example: A contract signed by the teacher, student, and student's parent explaining the appropriate behavior in class. By signing, students signify that they understand the behavior expected of them. The consequences will be on the contract as will.

This contract allows the student to say that they will follow the rules and act appropriately. It also tells them the consequences of not following the rules. 

It is appropriate for a second grade class because they have been in a school environment for two years at least and know how they should behave. The contract holds the student responsible for their own behavior.]]> 2017-09-24 18:49:29 UTC https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190602505 anhorvath86 https://padlet.com/anhorvath86/rc5jib5i0p72/wish/190603889 Foley, D.
