Think About It: What Affects Your Learning?
When do you learn best in class? What helps you focus and engage? What gets in the way of your learning? How do you feel when the class is disrupted?

The Truth About Teacher-Student Relationships
Teachers chose this profession to help you succeed We want to spend time teaching, not managing behavior Most conflicts arise from student actions, not teacher bias When you respect the learning environment, everyone benefits

Your Choices: The Ripple Effect
Disruptive behavior takes time away from learning Other students lose focus and fall behind Teacher stress increases, energy for teaching decreases Classroom atmosphere becomes tense and negative Respectful behavior creates a positive learning environment Everyone can focus and achieve their potential Teacher can be creative and engaging Class becomes a place people want to be

Reflection Activity: Taking Ownership
