I just found videos from another classroom management person: Rick Morris.
I haven't watched them all, but the three I have watched make a lot of sense. And make me think about the differences between
Old School Behavior Management and the new behavior of students, today.
I've watched:
The Freedom List

The Magnetic Number Tiles

A Better Classroom Culture

I want to share what I have learned with students and make it easier for them to learn in a safe positive classroom. But how do I do that if the students aren't listening?
Rick Morris strategies make sense, and cause me to pause in using prompting to try to reach students to do the 'right' thing in the classroom. I remember the 'good old days' when students would listen respectfully to teachers. Have any of you used Morris' strategies in the classroom? Did they work for you?
