Haim Ginott “I’ve come to a frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It’s my personal approach that creates the climate. It’s my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or dehumanized.” *page 1 in notes 6

Do-Now REVISIT (turn and talk) Has your thinking changed in regards to your answers to the Do-Now questions based on the last quote that we read? 1. What do you do? What steps do you take? 2. What do you do if the student(s) continues the behavior? *page 1 in notes 7
