- 5. Theory Overview No learning takes place when you discipline.
All disciplining does is stop deviant behavior, which must be done,
but no learning has taken place. Learning only takes place when the
students are at work, or as we say in education, on-task.
- 6. Teachers Actions Ineffective teachers begin the first day of
school attempting to teach a subject and spend the rest of the
school year running after the students. Effective teachers spend
most of the first two weeks of the school year teaching students to
follow classroom procedures. Effective teacher manages a classroom,
ineffective teacher disciplines a classroom.

- 11. One of the greatest gifts a caring teacher can contribute
to children is to help them learn to sit when they feel like
running, to raise their hand when they feel like talking, to be
polite to their neighbor, to stand in line without pushing, and to
do their homework when they feel like playing. By introducing
procedures in the classroom, you are also introducing procedures as
a way of living a happy and successful life.
