ATTENTION: If posting, even if you know how to post, please read the "How To" section by clicking on the button above. You need to be adding labels to your posts and this tells you how and what. To add a label, slick "Show Labels" in the post section and then click on the two labels you need: semester and category. DON'T TYPE IT IN because it may not be the exact label and if it's not, it won't link. There will be a comma between labels. You do NOT need to add your name as a label.

Two Choices

One of the best things I have learned to do with students who are misbehaving is to give them two choices. Of course, both choices are ones that we want, but the student doesn't realize this. I usually tell them they can do A or B; and then I walk away. By walking away you give the student back alittle power and they feel that they have saved their pride, because they are at least in control of which choice they pick. The students won't jump up and do what you ask immediately, but give them time and they will usually comply.
