I had not thought about having the students write their own names as being disruptive, but I think you may be right. I think I still want to try it, but I will be ready to take over and write their names myself if things start to get a little bit out of hand. <br /><br />And, thanks for the book recommendation! I'm always looking for good books to read to improve my teaching and classroom management.

I've found that telling students the issue can only be discussed at a time which is convenient for you really cuts down on a lot of that. Your consequences sound good - just remember that the key is consistency - if you enforce the rules the same way, every time, students will test you a lot less, so be sure they aren't too complicated. Having students write their own names on the board might be more time-consuming and disruptive than just doing it yourself. But you know your classroom and students best - just my thoughts. Oh, and my favorite book on classroom management is Settling Limits in the Classroom - I'd highly recommend it!Nancy in Indianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13815880089265103557noreply@blogger.com
