Classroom management is best achieved with relationships and community, not compliance. It works with a smile, not a scowl. It works with curiosity, not fear. It works with teachable moments, not punishment.
3 tips for winning over students:
1) Talk to them like they’re
adults.
2) Be curious about their experiences.
3) Don’t take yourself too seriously when you’re around them.
In addition to talking to each other in these strategies for learning through conversation, students talk to ideas--and the ideas talk back.

The absolute heart of loyalty is to value those people who tell you the truth, not just those who tell you what you want to hear.
In fact, you should value them most.
Because they have paid you the compliment of leveling with you and assuming you can handle it.

Show them everyday - a smile, high 5 or a pat on the back is all it takes most days.
The MOST respected coaches don't try to get athletes to respect them - they create a respectful environment by showing respect & trust.
