VII. BEST PRACTICES THAT WERE SHARED DURING THE MEETING

Now our community of students, teachers and parents work to act in a

respectful manner for a more effective academic environment. We now have the
knowledge and skills to interact with each other in a way to support one other,
thereby achieving a win/win situation. Before Positive Discipline at our school,
respect was a word, now it is actions.

The speaker explains that using positive discipline techniques can help
teachers overcome the many challenges in the classroom and help students
learn and make better choices in the future. In fact, using positive discipline in
the classroom not only increases academic success in the classroom but
provides many other benefits, including:

 Students show respect for the teacher

 Students are on task and engaged
 Less disciplinary measures are needed
 Fewer suspension and expulsions
 Students see rules as fair
 Attendance improves

Even though teachers have a big influence on their students’ behavior,

some teachers may not be aware of the amount of influence they have (Roache
& Lewis, 2011). Because of this, teachers often resort to using punishment and
aggressive behavior to correct student behavior. Riley, Lewis, and Brew (2010)
found that teachers justify their aggressive behavior by talking about the
students’ unacceptable behavior. Because teachers want students to be
focused during class, they claim their aggressive behavior is to fix the child’s
behavior to help them concentrate.

VIII. CURRENT OR EMERGING NEEDS AND CONCERN

We believe that schools have a critical choice to make in how we perceive

and respond to student misbehavior. When we follow familiar and traditional
practice, we often act in ways that contradict our fundamental mission—to
engage each student in high levels of learning.

We know that reinforcing good behavior and reward systems produce

better results than harsh discipline and punishments. It helps children feel
good about their choices and strive to repeat them, rather than find ways to
avoid a punishment. Children naturally seek the praise and acknowledgement
of their caregivers, so we can use this tendency to steer their behavior.

Positive parenting offers a number of benefits. Here are a few:

 Better understanding of feelings
 Reduces power struggles
 Emotional development
 Discover motivators
 Stronger relationships
 Character development
