Importance of the Content
Teacher or students convey a negative attitude toward the content, suggesting that it is not important or has been mandated by others.
Teacher communicates importance of the work but with little conviction and only minimal apparent buy-in by the students.
Teacher conveys genuine enthusiasm for the content, and students demonstrate consistent commitment to its value.
Students demonstrate through their active participation, curiosity, and taking initiative that they value the content’s importance.
Expectations for Learning and Achievement
Instructional outcomes, activities and assignments, and classroom interactions convey low expectations for at least some students.
Instructional outcomes, activities and assignments, and classroom interactions convey only modest expectations for student learning and achievement.
Instructional outcomes, activities and assignments, and classroom interactions convey high expectations for most students.
Instructional outcomes, activities and assignments, and classroom interactions convey high expectations for all students. Students appear to have internalized these expectations.
Student Pride in Work
Students demonstrate little or no pride in their work. They seem to be motivated by the desire to complete a task rather than to do high-quality work.
Students minimally accept the responsibility to “do good work” but invest little of their energy into its quality.
Students accept the teacher’s insistence on work of high quality and demonstrate pride in that work.
Students demonstrate attention to detail and take obvious pride in their work initiating improvements in it by, for example, revising drafts on their own, or helping peers.

The number one problem in the classroom is not discipline; it is the lack of procedures and routines”.
Harry Wong
Misbehavior often results because students have not been taught procedures and routines.
Procedures and Routines
Procedures are how things are done.
Routines are procedures that are practiced and are done automatically by students.
What are some procedures that are addressed in well-managed classroom?
Entering the classroom Leaving the classroom Tardy to class Getting to work immediately Participating in class discussions Coming to attention Passing in papers
Procedures and Routines
Must be taught, rehearsed, and modeled for the students
Some procedures must be taught in the beginning of the year
How to Teach Procedures
Explain the procedures Rehearse them with the
students
Reinforce the procedure
Results of the implementation of effective procedures/routines
Reduction of discipline problems
Increased time on task and fewer disruptions
Order is established and maintained
Automatic desired student behavior without prompting
Preparation Room is ready, lesson is ready, and the teacher is ready Clear student expectations Students know before lesson begins what they are responsible for learning Time on Task Discipline Plan is established and followed consistently and assignments
are posted every day. Work-oriented climate Procedures and routines have been taught and practiced.
Discipline
What is it?It is about how the student behaves.
Every effective teacher has a discipline plan!If you do not have a discipline plan, then youplan to fail. Harry Wong
Discipline
Why do I need a discipline plan?
To create a Safe, orderly environment Respectful, work-oriented environment
Essential Elements of the Discipline Plan

Guidelines for Intervention
1. Focus on the behavior, not the student.2. Take charge of negative emotions.3. Avoid escalating the situation.4. Discuss misbehavior later. 5. Allow students to save face.
When the Goal is Attention!Interventions
Strategy 1: Minimize the Attention1.Refuse to respond2.Give the “Eye”3.Stand close by4.Use Name Dropping5.Send a General/Secret Signal6.Use an “I” message
Attention Seeking Behavior
Strategy 2: Clarify Desired Behavior
1.State “Grandma’s Law”2.Use “Target-Stop-Do”
When the Goal is Power!
The Rumbling Stage: Make a Graceful Exit The Eruption Stage: Use time Out The Resolution Stage: Set Consequences
Prevention/Intervention Activity
Role-Play
Power Seeking Strategies Graceful Exits
Acknowledge Student’s Power
Remove the Audience Table the Matter Schedule a conference Use a Fogging Technique Agree with the Student Call the Student’s bluff
Agree with the Student Change the Subject State Both Viewpoints Refuse responsibility Dodge Irrelevant Issues Deliver a Closing
