Classroom and Behavior Management Framework Notes Morrish’s Real Discipline: Discipline should be established through the teacher setting standards and modeling those expectations. An organized set of techniques and strategies that teach students respect, responsibilities, and cooperation. Not more choices but what is and is not acceptable before giving the students the chance to make a choice. The idea is that young children are impulsive and self-centered, so they do not make acceptable decisions. Young children come to school not knowing what is considered responsible behavior. Morrish believes in choice, but not until the student is mature enough to handle it His idea of Real Discipline ensures students are prepared for the choices they will need to make. Real Discipline has three phases. First, training for compliance (students are taught to comply with rules and limits. Listing to a person of authority). Second, Teaching proper behavior. (skills for respect responsibility, and cooperation). Third, managing student choice (giving students more and more choices to promote independence.)

- Not a new theory- set of techniques to teach students to be respectful, responsible and cooperative Morrish’s Real Discipline Pros and Cons:

involving students in decision making before they are at that level of maturity is a waste of time - 3 reasons for failure: Does not demand proper behavior, does not teach the students how they should behave in school, leaves teachers bargaining and negotiating with students

Wong Model Strengths: very practical, tells you how to set up classroom in the first initial days Weaknesses: You have to adapt to make it your own, they don't tell you what to do with kids who are not going to follow the procedures, it takes time to teach and organize the procedures, does not always work for secondary

A comparison of Discipline ModelsRobyn AlexanderGCU: EDU 536August 28, 2013 Wong’s and Morrish discipline models are similar; in that they both highlight teaching the students properbehavior using predictable and normative methods (Charles, 2014). The main difference between the two is thatWong focuses more heavily on classroom implementation and procedures (not all of which are a response to badbehavior; some just set the expectations), while Morrish focuses more specifically on methods of discipline(Charles, 2014).However, Morrish includes more elements taking into account the reaction and needs of thestudent than Wong, who focuses more on an ideal classroom setting (Charles, 2014).On the other hand, the Win-Win model of discipline is the most positive of the three, as it leaves more room for the personal development andpositive individualism of each student.Rather than focusing on meeting certain norms or expectations, the win-win method focuses on helping each student reach their maximum potential, and replace any negative attitudes ortendencies with positive ones (Charles, 2014). For the above and average students, the win-win discipline model isthe most effective and exciting for students with special learning disabilities or behavioral difficulties, Wong’spragmatic classroom and Morrish’s real discipline models may be more effective, as these students will beincapable or unwilling to respond to the win-win methods.On another note, a compare/contrast table of thedifferent theorists; including their strengths, weakness, advantages, and disadvantages of each theorist can besummed up in the table below. I will also discuss whether I agree or disagree with each of their theory....
