Discipline

I was really impressed with the presentation that Evan, Megan and Jess gave the class. I think what I appreciated most was their flexibility. Obviously they had done a lot of research and had many things to present about discipline. They had all sorts of blurbs about different approaches to discipline and bullet-points to present and yet the listened to what the class need and let us discuss our thoughts. I got a lot out of that discussion. I liked the icebreaker activity where we had to talk about the spectrum of reactions to discipline problems. It was a good catalyst for discussion. I also liked learning about discipline in the south and how corporal punishment is allowed in some places. It was interesting. I'm not sure how I feel about it but I was glad to learn about how it worked. Overall, I felt the group had researched a lot and had many ideas to offer as to how to handle classroom discipline. It is a daunting topic and I think they handled it well.
