Behavior Management
A behavior management plan is a set of processes to hold students accountable for their actions, encourage positive behavior, and prevent scolding or lecturing, both ineffective at altering behavior. Discipline is not identical to a behavior control strategy. One part of a behavior management strategy is discipline. Procedures, regulations, and punishments are part of a solid behavior management plan. These must be communicated to students at the start of the school year. Students may be able to assist you in developing these in some circumstances. They will feel greater ownership and be more likely to comply if involved in the plan's formulation.
