  4. Love and Logic Philosophy • Adults providing limits in a caring way • Building students up after being disciplined • Staying calm and avoiding confrontation with students • Using polite statements that are enforceable • Discipline is maintained with compassion

  5. Discipline in the Classroom • Treating students with respect • Building positive relationships with students • Providing many choices throughout the day but when discipline is needed only use two choices • Using ENFORCEABLE STATEMENTS!

  6. Experience for Children • Requires children to experience consequences • Absence of adult anger allows children to think and learn from mistakes • Act more responsible and not “point fingers” • Be empathetic in the situation and have logical consequences!

  7. Love and Logic Helps Educators… • Set classroom limits without anger • Provide hope and willingness when it gets tough • Raise odds for students to stay in school • Manage and immediately handle disruptive students • Build positive relationships • Help students own and solve their own problems

  8. This Works Because… • When adults take care of themselves, students are forced to handle their problems • When students have to solve a problem they have to think • When students have to think they have to learn that decisions have consequences • When dealing with consequences they have to learn to think • When we allow students to deal with consequences they have to learn to think before causing a problem • When students learn to ask themselves “How is my behavior going to affect me?” They have learned self control.
