1. We Learn Something New Every Day, Even the Teacher! Contributed by Silvia Navallas I have used this system with 12 year old students and it has worked so far. They see me as a person that can also make mistakes and they feel better when participating, when they do something wrong, etc. All resources in the "Contributions" section of our resource bank have been submitted by delegates on our Taking Care of Behaviour Online course. For more information about this practical, self-paced course, please visit: http://www.pivotaleducation.com/taking-care-of-behaviour-online/ http://www.pivotaleducation.com/taking-care-of-behaviour-online/

3. We are going to sign a contract and if we don’t fulfil it, we will have to admit it and talk about it. DO YOU AGREE? I DO AGREE.

4. Plan and prepare every single lesson. Be enthusiastic when teaching. Praise the students for working hard and having achieved the objectives. Say sorry when making mistakes or being wrong. Help students when they cannot cope with the work they have to do or they do not understand anything. Deal with inappropriate behaviour calmly and talk to the students out of class. Be consistent. Be respectful. SIGNED THE TEACHER

5. Pay attention in class. Do my best when having to do any task. Be respectful. Say sorry when misbehaving and apologise. Take turns to participate. Help my classmates. No laughing when classmates participate and are wrong. (Nobody is perfect). Follow the school rules. Try to learn even if it is difficult and ask for help when needed. SIGNED THE STUDENT

6. TALK, TALK AND TALK IS THE KEY TO MISBEHAVIOUR.
