Playstation Gets It!


Have you argued with a student?

Admit it - you have.  And even worse - sometimes the student wins.

I know.  Don’t worry - there is a three step program for you.  (Hey it is better than a 12 step!)

First step:“John, please have a seat.”

Second step: “John, sit down.”

Third step: “John, sit.”

Notice there are no comments from the student.  That is because THEY DO NOT MATTER.  What matters is the behavior you expect.  When a student argues or tries to distract you - use repetiion. 

See it in action!  Check out this Playstation commercial.
