Discipline is helping a child solve a problem. Punishment is making child suffer for having a problem. To raise problem solvers, focus on solutions not retribution.
Classroom management controls students from the outside. Classroom leadership empowers students to control themselves from within.
A young person’s sense of connectedness with school is associated with positive social and academic outcomes. Children feel more connected to their school, consequently are more likely to succeed academically when they believe that the adults and other children at school not only care about how well they are learning, but also care about them as individuals.
Learning, as a process, requires a space where children feel free to ask questions, seek help and not worry about making mistakes.
