Class Meetings

Class meetings have been part of my weekly lesson plans since my first year teaching. In the beginning, I started with 1 hour meetings once a week. They were productive, but too long and I knew they could be better. After taking a course in Positive Discipline, I was able to have two 30 minute meetings twice a week. These meetings were productive and effective. Class issues and individual problems were addressed, solved, and goals were set for the following week. I have included charts that i've used as visual prompts and a lesson plan/structure for class meetings adapted from Jane Nelsen, author of the Positive Discipline.
