Classroom Discipline

January 11, 2018 4:01am CST
Every teacher has this problem. Hard headed student. I always ask myself how will I survive the day of teaching hard headed students. Surprisingly, I always find a method to discipline my students. Reward and punishment helps me a lot. I am willing to give everything just to help my students. One time, our classroom was too mesy that our trashes were full and overflowing. In my diagust to their behavior, I asked them to get out of the class and I started to stack up the chairs. And that lasted 4 days. Before I let them sit on their chairs again, I asked what were their motivation to clean the room for 5 days. They answered that they were tired on sitting on the floor and I was touced because the room wad clean and orderly. I hope they will bring this lesson til they grow old.

That was really good. I wish I tried that on my students too. I always tried the reward one. For example, I used to give chocolates and stars, etc for the most overall disciplined student. That thing really worked for me as mine were primary class students.

I think you just have to give them little responsibilities like cleaning up their desk every after activity. That way, you also teach them to be responsible.

@Krischun13 That's a good idea. I'll surely suggest it to some of my friends in teaching profession as I left it last year. How long have you been in this profession?

Clever way of telling the students the importance of cleanliness. Instead of yanking and yanking that is one good way to discipline the kids.

Naughty students needs a lesson sometimes too. Teachers need to discipline naughty students in a way that they will learn their lesson and may never do the same naughtiness again.

Thing is, after every punishment, I explain to them what is the reason behind their punishment.
