Brandon's Logic

My cooperating teacher helped me develop some great phrases she thinks work. For example, "I let kids go outside when they follow directions." or "I will listen when students raise their hands". or "Kids that shout out move their clothespin."-negative or "Kids that raise their hands stay on green."-positive
Give a choice
"Either finish your work now or at recess."
And if they don't answer you choose for them. They still have to do it and be given a consequence.
I thought these were some good phrases I could use to manage my class effectively.
