– Respond effectively to minor misbehavior—by asserting authority to command students’ attention, to communicate and reinforce expectations, and to maximize student learning.
By letting minor misbehavior slide, you open the door to
major misbehavior.

Minor vs. Major Misbehavior• Major misbehavior = breaking a rule• Characterized by significant, willful disrespect • Sometimes involves intentional violence towards people or
stuff• Requires more than redirection from the teacher
• Minor misbehavior = breaking a rule• Less severe student actions that may involve:
– interrupting the class– slight instances of disrespect– attempts to do the right thing – but in the wrong way

Minor or Major?• As you hand out the weekly test, Janet rolls her eyes and mutters, “I’m
not doing this stupid work. I hate this boring class.”• You have taught your students that, while listening to peers read essays
aloud, they must listen actively – by keeping their eyes on the speaker, taking carefully notes, and asking thoughtful questions. Today, while Byron is sharing his writing, you notice Marcus digging through his desk to find a pen and then doodling on his folder.
• You are facilitating a whole-group discussion on a novel that your class is reading. Twice, Maria shares her thoughts and opinions without raising her hand; on one occasion, she cuts off another student who had been attempting to speak.

Minor or Major?• As you bring your students back from recess, you turn
around and see Jose stomp on Miguel’s foot.• During silent reading time, you hear Joyelle and Martina
whispering from their spots on the carpet, their books in their laps.
• While standing outside for a fire drill, you overhear Sophie and Walter telling Jon that he shouldn’t be in your class, and that he should go back to the room for “special kids.”
• During a quiz, you see Max looking over at his neighbor’s paper and then changing his original answer.
• Joaquin bursts into the room two minutes after the bell rings, saying loudly, “Sorry Miss. I slept through my alarm. I know you hate it when we’re late.”

Key Idea Review (EXEC 1: Asserting Authority)
• Classroom management and culture begin with you.
• It doesn’t take a certain kind of person to have outstanding classroom management. BUT, it does take an assertive teacher – and assertiveness doesn’t come naturally to everyone.
• Assertive teachers aren’t hostile. They aren’t passive. They aren’t emotional. They’re firm and positive and calm. They are in control of themselves.
• Assertive responses remind students of the expectations, and hold them accountable for meeting them.– Immediate– Clear– Involve a consequence
Criteria for an effective response to minor misbehavior
• Give a consequence • Immediate• Clear / assertive• Invest minimal emotion• Maintain the flow of the lesson
Effective Responses to Student Behavior
Handout 1: Responding to Minor Misbehavior –Video Note-Taking Template
Video Clip• Jennifer, 7th Grade (2:00)
What did this teacher’s strategies have in common?– Was she high-intensity or low-intensity?– How would you describe the teacher’s demeanors
as they implemented the strategies?– What impact did the strategies have on the flow of
the lesson?
11
Key Idea
Responding effectively to minor misbehavior means giving an immediate consequence – but
doing so with minimal emotional investment and while
maintaining the flow of the lesson.
12
Responding to Appropriate BehaviorStrategies• Have a system• Build time into your daily schedule• Track the positive prominently• Teach your students how to celebrate each other• Videotape yourself and tally positive/negative
commentsDon’t forget rewards.
Often, the majority of your students are behaving appropriately!

Supplemental StrategiesHandout 3: Effective Responses to Minor Misbehavior (BPB 531)
14
Specific Strategiesgive a consequence, and……model desired behavior…physical cues/proximity
…be silent suddenly…give a teacher look…say student name…have student re-do…use post-it notes
…use individualized signals…praise other students
A new take on an old scene
• Is this misbehavior major or minor? • What makes this response somewhat
ineffective? (consider the criteria for effective response)
Modeling Debrief after each scenarioWhat was the strategy used?
What makes the approach was effective?
How did the approach meet the criteria introduced for effective
responses?– Clear / assertive– Immediate– Involved a consequence– Minimal emotional investment– Maintained flow of lesson

1. You have taught your students that, while listening to peers read essays aloud, they need to listen actively – by keeping their eyes on the speaker, taking carefully notes, and asking thoughtful questions. Today, while Byron is sharing his writing, you notice Marcus digging through his desk to find a pen and then doodling on his folder. Your other students are attentive and engaged.

CM Practice: Independent PreparationHandout 4: Minor Misbehavior – Ineffective Responses
(BPB 532-533
• Each CM in a collaborative will take one of the four ineffective response scenarios, and do the following:– Read the scenario– Identify the mindset(s) that the teacher is likely
lacking– Identify the criteria for an effective response that
the teacher fails to meet– Design an alternate – more effective – response,
using the criteria and strategies introduced here, and based upon your own classroom management system
23
CM Practice: Role-PlaysHandout 5: Role-Play Note- Taking Template
– CM #1 reads his/her scenario to the group, and assigns collaborative members to act as specific “students” in the role-play
– CM #1 has 2 minutes to role-play the scenario, while other CMs participate as necessary and take notes
– CM #2, CM #3, and CM #4 have 2 minutes to provide feedback, based on their notes
– CM #1 has 1 minute to re-role-play the scenario, incorporating feedback
– Repeat this process four times (giving each CM an opportunity to be the “teacher”)
