2. Parable of Win-Win Discipline Two women are standing on the bank of a swift river. In the strong current, flailing about, desperately struggling to stay afloat, a man is carried downstream toward them. The women both jump in, pulling the man to safety. While the brave rescuers are tending the victim, a second man, also desperate and screaming for help, is carried by the current toward them. Again the women jump into the river to the rescue. As they are pulling out this second victim, they spot a third man flailing about as he is carried downstream toward them. One woman quickly jumps in to save the latest victim. As she does, she turns to see the other women resolutely walking upstream. �Why aren�t you helping?� she cries. � I am,� states the other. �I am going to see who is pushing them in!� (Kagan, 2001, p.50)

10. Case Studies �What would Win-Win suggest?� Case # 1 Kristina, a student in Mr. Jake�s class, is quite docile. She socializes little with other students and never disrupts lessons. However, despite Mr. Jake�s best efforts, Kristina will not do her work. She rarely completes an assignment. She is simply there, putting forth no effort at all.

11. Win-Win advises�. Mr. Jake to do the following: Identify Kristina�s disruptive behavior and ask behavior specific questions. Identify and help Kristina acknowledge her position. Ask her how she feels about the work, determining if it is to difficult for her (leading to avoidance of failure), or not interesting (leading to boredom)

12. What would you do�..??? Case # 2: Sara is a pleasant girl who participates in class activities and does most, though not all, of her assigned work. However, she cannot seem to refrain from talking to classmates. Her teacher Mr. Gonzales has to speak to her repeatedly during lessons and loses his temper. Case # 3: Joshua, larger and louder than his classmates, always wants to be the center of attention, which he accomplishes through a combination of clowning and intimidation. He makes wise remarks, talks back, utters a variety of sound effect noises such as automobile crashes and gunshots. He makes limitless sarcastic comments and put-downs of his classmates. Case # 4: Tom has appeared to be in his usual foul mood ever since arriving in class. On his way to sharpen his pencil, he bumps into Frank, who complains. Tom tells him loudly to shut up. The teacher says, for Tom to go back to his seat. Tom wheels around, swears loudly, and says heatedly, �I�ll go when I�m damned good and ready!�
