"Glasser's views about discipline are simple,
yet powerful.
Behaviour is a matter of choice. Good behaviour
results from good choices and bad behaviour results from bad choices.
A teacher's duty is to help students
make those good choices."
"Discipline is not punishment. It is teaching students to impose
limits on themselves."
Dreiker

and habits => behave with
respect at all times => I will

loudly, calling out, walking about
the room (even to sharpen my pencil),
clowning, tossing objects, and so forth.
