  1. “Management is NOT discipline” Harry Wong By Amber Broach

  2. Who knows Harry? • He received his undergraduate degree from California, Berkley. His doctorate is from Brigham Young University in Utah. • He is a former secondary science teacher and as a classroom teacher, he developed methods which resulted in his having no discipline problems, a zero dropout rate, a 95% homework turn-in factor, and the ability to demonstrate mastery learning for each of his students.

  3. Management is NOT Discipline • Make sure your classroom is prepared. Teachers who prepare their classrooms in advance maximize student learning and minimize student misbehavior. How prepared a teacher is determines their success in the classroom. • Everything the teacher wants done should be done as a procedure. • Effective teacher manages classroom; ineffective teacher disciplines classroom. • Inappropriate behavior is handled promptly and consistently.

  4. Key Ideas Discipline: Make sure students understand rules, consequences and rewards from the beginning. Create a sense of responsibility in students. Procedures: Clearly defining what you expect and enforcing repetition of desired action will decrease behavior issues Routines: allow the students to repeat the routine enough that it becomes second nature.

  5. Teacher Responsibilities • Stay organized • Provide a task-orientated environment • Repetition and familiarity • Record progress • Teach procedures for everything • Make sure students understand your behavior plan • Be consistent with rules

  6. The Three-Step Approach to Teaching Classroom Procedures • Explain: State, explain, model, and demonstrate the procedure. • Rehearse: Rehearse and practice the procedure under yoursupervision. • Reinforce: Reteach, rehearse, practice, and reinforce the classroom procedure until it becomes a student habit or routine.
