Behavior Management Strategies:
Students vary on how they act and react to different situations. Classroom management is remaining calm and consistent through all the students emotions and frustrations. Some students are violent, others are emotional, or withdraw from activities and peers. The most important thing for a teacher to do in these situations is to stay consistent. Rules and set consequences will help you manage your classroom.
Ideas for Positive Reinforcement and Behavior Strategies:

Reinforcements can either be positive or negative. Negative reinforcements is when students lose privileges or things are taken away. Positive reinforcements are rewards given to students based on good behavior, for example, more recess time, prizes, incentives, and games.
Students can have a part in their own behavior management. They can practice self reinforcement. As teachers you can meet one on one with students to decide good action plans to stop behaviors or improve reactions. I also have a strong opinion about involving parents in behavior plans. When you get the parents on board, they can practice reinforcing those good behaviors in the home as well as at school so there is a consistent expectation and rules at both home and school.
