promises. they confer dignity on their students by treating them as
social equals capable of making good decisions.

Effective teachers invite cooperation from their studentsdescribing the situation and indicating what
needs to be done.
They do not dictate to students or boss them aroundwhich are acts that provoke resistance.

I- Message / You- Message
Teachers should use I-messages rather than you-messages.
I-message, example: “I am very upset”. You-message, example: “You are being
very rude.”
Use laconic language- Laconic means short and to the point.

Praise
Evaluative praise, example: “Good boy for raising your hand”.
Teachers should use appreciative praise when responding to effort or improvement,
- This is praise in which the teacher shows appreciation for what the student has done, without directly evaluating the student’s character or talent.

Teachers should avoid asking why questions when discussing behavior.
- Why questions make students feel guilty and defensive.

Teacher and Child
“As a teacher I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher I possess tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated, and a child humanized or dehumanized.” (pg.13)
