Discipline: the process by which individual and
group order is maintained in a classroom, home or society. Through
out
history discipline has taken many forms. It varied from
society to society and time to time. Often it was harsh and
and deadly and at other times it was understanding and
corrective. In essence it is the process by which individuals and
groups maintained order in a classroom, home or society. You as a
teacher are responsible for the way the class operates and
functions. Never allow a minor situation to grow into a
confrontation. No learning can take place if the atmosphere
is chaotic and uneasy. As a parent you need to be
understanding, supportive and yet you must work to correct
the inappropriate behavior in a way that is fair, age
appropriate and just. |
