This document discusses challenges in the classroom and providing a positive learning environment for students. It begins by outlining objectives around understanding positive behavior frameworks and how the environment influences student conduct. Common disruptive student behaviors are then described from a teacher perspective, such as using electronics, talking out of turn, and verbal/physical aggression. Potential causes of misbehavior are listed, including seeking attention, unclear rules, and boredom. A 3-phase positive learning model is introduced that focuses on self-awareness, lesson planning, and corrective actions. The Circle of Courage model is also referenced for fostering belonging, mastery, independence and generosity in students. Several classroom scenario examples are provided relating to accommodating students and addressing inappropriate online
