Ever meet a kid that thinks they make the uniform rules?
Whenever possible, I like to make discipline fun.
Sometimes kids show up out of uniform. Whether it's something very mild or something egregious, I always publicly ask, "what are you president of the uniforms or something?" They laugh, their friends laugh, I smile, and the issue is corrected quickly. Now about a month into the school year, the students are already starting to correct themselves before they walk in, and the best part is when they correct each other.
The discipline is starting to take care of itself. I like empowering students to empower themselves. Taking pride in your school and classroom is not just ok, it's the best!
