Conscious Discipline Model
Hi everyone! ☺️
I’m looking for some insight from others who use the Conscious Discipline approach in their classrooms. In our school we sometimes have children who struggle with listening or following directions, and I want to make sure we're responding in a way that aligns with this model.
What are some effective, respectful consequences or strategies you use when a child doesn’t listen or follow expectations? How do you balance being firm with limits while still maintaining connection and emotional safety?
I’d really appreciate reading what has worked for you in real classroom situations! ✨
We've had literacy nights at our school in New York and they were a big success. We had stations as you had mentioned and tied it in with a book fair (Scholastic). The children were also able to make a bookmark at one of the stations. We also had someone dressed up in a character costume like Clifford (we had Loukoumi because the author was a school parent) which was a big hit at the Photo Booth.
