Managing Behaviour
 Win-Win approach –
 Preventative
 Moment-of-Disruption
 Follow-Ups
 Moment-of-Disruption
 What sort of disruption do you think the one shown is?
 What position do you think the student is taking?
 How could you deal with the disruption?
+
Moment-of-Disruption strategies
 Remind students of class agreements.
 Ask students to make better choices.
 Redirect students’ attention to the work.
 Try another way – take tasks one step at a time.
 Coupons for frequent behaviour.
 Catch-me strategies.
 Call attention to the Learner Profile.
Further ideas in Win-Win Discipline.

Editor's Notes

  • #4 Where might Educational Assistants encounter challenging behaviour, and what steps can they take to counter it?
  • #5 The reason it is important to know what sort of behaviour is because it is helpful when thinking about how to deal with it.
  • #6 Can you think of examples of these positions from students you know or have known? Share with a talk partner. Hand out sheets with the condensed information on them!
