01
Time
Low-level discipline problems are where instruction time goes.
Program one
Classroom management training for your whole staff, in one day
The training is a full day on your campus, and teachers leave with a complete system they can use right away.
Why this training
Four reasons to start with classroom management
02
Achievement
Discipline comes first. Without control, even the best lessons stay undelivered.
03
Stress
These strategies reduce or eliminate 70 to 90% of chronic, low-level behaviors.
04
Turnover
Classroom management is the number one reason educators leave the profession, and the fix can be taught.
Research
"Teachers' actions in their classrooms have twice the impact on student achievement as school policies regarding curriculum, assessment, staff collegiality, and community involvement."
Marzano, R. J. (2003). What Works in Schools. ASCD.
The five components
One day, five components
The training models each strategy and gives teachers time to practice it.
1. Self-Control
2. Rules & Procedures
3. Responding to Challenges
4. Ecology & Arrangement
5. Relationships
Component One
Self-control strategies
Everything else in the training builds on self-control. Teachers learn to read the room, stay calm, and catch disruptions early, preventing up to 90% of low-level problems.
Component Two
Teaching rules and procedures
Clear procedures, taught on purpose, reduce office referrals. Teachers learn to plan and practice routines the same way they plan academic lessons.
Component Three
Responding to challenges
When a student pushes back, what should the teacher do first? This component answers that with five immediate steps, contingent withdrawal of attention, and firm, fair follow-through.
Component Four
Classroom ecology and arrangement
Fifteen desk arrangements, and when to use each one. Teachers also learn where to stand so challenges are less likely to start.
Component Five
Student-teacher relationships
Students engage with a teacher who sees them, knows them, and values them. Teachers learn to build trust with the most challenging students and turn non-compliant students into contributors.
Agenda
The day, hour by hour
The format is flexible: half-day or full-day, in person on your campus, scheduled around your calendar.
The morning is about prevention. Between 8:30 AM and 12:00 PM, teachers practice a calm mindset and the teaching power position, arrange the room with fifteen desk layouts, and set up rules and procedures.
The afternoon is about response. After lunch (12:00 to 1:00 PM), the block from 1:00 to 3:30 PM covers firm and fair discipline, relationships, non-compliant students, five steps to regain control, and dropping repeated warnings.
