“Even disruptive students have tenure and are almost impossible to get rid of.” (Glasser 135)
Students are like family members – you can’t choose them!

14 TIPS FROM THE TRENCHES
1. Create engaging lesson plans; the better the lesson is, the less likely students are to disrupt them.

2. Have rules you can live with (The fewer the better) Teach and reteach them!!!

3. Allow students to pick their seats; it gives them ownership.

7. Give students choice regarding the route, but make the destination non-negotiable
![Page 15: Kim Riley MFLA Fall Conference October 16, 2010](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051710/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab0599712a3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

9. Recognize the power of reframing a situation (A teacher’s perception of a student’s behavior can dramatically influence a response)
![Page 17: Kim Riley MFLA Fall Conference October 16, 2010](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051710/5a4d1ad07f8b9ab0599712a3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
10. Keep consequences close to home - Avoid referrals unless the student has broken the law ie. Assault, drug sale/use, sexual misbehavior
If the only tool you have in your toolbox is a hammer, then you are going to treat every problem like a nail.
