It takes 30 seconds to make a first impression!
But it takes approximately 20 additional encounters
to undo or change a bad first impression!

We do not have the power to “control”
behavior, but we do have the power to
establish the climate.

You cannot appropriately deal with
misbehavior if your button is
pushed. Our goal is to de-escalate
behavior and hold the student
accountable:
 Use questions sequentially
 Do not lecture
 No bailing and let it slide
 Don’t add questions
 Be consistent in how you ask
questions (ask questions the
same way with all kids in any
situation.) Capturing Kids’ Hearts

No!!
But it does eliminate
misbehavior because of lack of
knowledge of the expectations
or the understanding of those
expectations
