  Choice theory byWilliam Glasser • Choice theory states all we do is behave, make choices about our behaviors, and our choices are driven by our five basic needs: survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun. The theory states we are motivated intrinsically, not extrinsically. • Convey to the students they have the choice to learn • Lead the students in ways to build trust, respect, and effectively communicate with one another • Design lessons where the students’ needs will be met • When the teacher makes positive relationships with their students, they are able to coerce their students into acceptable behaviors

  Student-directed learning byKohn • Kohn’s student directed learning theory- believes that what the student needs should be the focus of the classroom. • Have the students work displayed around the classroo • Supply plenty of supplies and materials in the classroom to support student learning. • Having the students in siting at large tables or having them work in small groups or with a partner. • The teacher should be interacting with the students instead of sitting at their desk • Have open spaces and centers for students to work at on their own time.

  Assertive Discipline bythe Canters • Classroom Management Strategies: • Lee and Marlene Canter developed their behavior approach based on the assumptions that teachers have a right to teach and a right to expect students to misbehave. Assertive discipline has a high level of teacher control in the classroom. The teacher maximizes their potential to get what they want without violating the best interest of their students. • Clearly and firmly communicate expectations to a student and reinforce your words with actions • Implement a maximum of 5 rules/expectations. List these rules/expectations on the board with the positive and negative consequences. • Establish expectations in the classroom such as raising hands to speak, no talking back, keeping leg chairs on the floor, complete work on time, etc. • Catching and praising students when they are good.

  Behavior management theoryby Skinner Properly used, positive reinforcement is extremely powerful. -- B.F. Skinner • Skinner’s primary work was addressing controlling and motivating student behavior. The classroom practice that teachers use is called behavior modification. Teachers used implement this technique improve both learning and behavior in students. Skinner did not believe that punishing a child was ineffective. He believe incentives worked to modify behavior more than punishment.

  Positive Behavior Support •Positive behavioral support is used to lessen the unwanted and negative behaviors while supporting and increasing the positive behaviors. • Have behavior contracts to encourage the correct and wanted behavior. • Use incentives and rewards when the correct behavior is displayed • Have rules clearly posted in the classroom and use the students input in developing them • Have students recognize other students for positive behavior that day or week. • Use applied behavior analysis to target positive behaviors and minimize the negative ones • Use a functional behavior assessment to also target the desired behavior.

It is important students are not disrupted by other students. They can do this by researching and implementing classroom management theories/theorists.
