Beth Dichter's insight:

Actually there are two sets of classroom rules in this post. The one above will help teach students how to deal with problems that may be escalating...with the student being asked to help solve the problem. The other poster is "almost entirely focused on the human being the rules were written for, rather than the rules themselves. Take risks and make mistakes, Do your best, Say please and thank you, and Work hard. All good stuff."

These two sets of rules may help you revise the rules for your classroom this year. Check them out and see what you think.

I really like the accentuating of the positive in both of these posters.

Interesting. I often try to test rule-sets like this by running them past an anecdotal example - in this case, "how would student texting during class be managed by this poster's rules?" Which may expose a dilemma of application - because students texting during class can get an educator a black mark in an impromptu learning walk or unnanounced observation, and because it can tempt other students who cannot afford to be so distracted to think that texting would be a good idea for THEM, I'd define it as a "problem" - but cannot think of many students who would agree. The primary issue here, then: who defines what is a "problem for someone else"? If teacher and student cannot agree on that category, I see little use - and some distraction and danger - in such a set.
