Type your notes on the outline and save/print out according to your teacher’s directions. Activity 2: Research and Role-Play Form a group of 3 - 4 students to examine several specific student behaviors, then create a role-play showing one of those behaviors and its effects in the classroom. Select 3 - 4 behaviors from the list that seem familiar or interesting to your group members. NOTE: Labels used in this resource refer to behaviors, not students. While these labels and behavior profiles may remind you of students and teachers you know, refrain from mentioning real students and teachers by name in conjunction with this activity. Save this research notes organizer to conduct individual research on one of the behaviors your group chose; then share your learning with your group members and select one behavior to dramatize in a group role-play. Save this planning sheet to plan, practice, and present your role-play. Engage your classmates in a discussion about what they observed; share and discuss some of the teacher actions recommended in the You Can Handle Them All discipline model. Activity 3: Audience Participation Save this role-play notes organizer to record your observations as groups present their role-plays: Specific student attitudes & actions for this behavior The behavior’s effects on the teacher, classmates, and learning environment Teacher “mistakes” in reaction to this behavior Alternative actions the teacher might have taken to change the behavior

Which of the two discipline models do you think would be most effective in the classroom, and why? Use this interactive Comic Creator to illustrate the behaviors, effects, teacher mistakes, and appropriate teacher actions for another one of the behaviors from the You Can Handle Them All discipline model.
