#1 strategy for oppositional kids: use questions instead of statements. Q’s can’t be argued. Instead of “I said sit down!” It is (privately), “Can you pls explain why u think it’s ok to stand instead of sit?” For oppositional kids questions are kryptonite. #edchat#kidsdeserveit
Teachers please remember: “Fair” means all get what they need. “Equal” means all get the same. Be fair. Don’t worry about treating everyone the same way. #edchat#KidsDeserveIt
Take the kid everyone always tries to help, & put him / her in charge of helping as many others as possible. Kids who are constantly helped become helpless. Teaching & trusting them to help others can be life saving for both. #powercontrol#edchat#KidsDeserveIt
