Choose two of the following quotes and explain how they reflect or don’t reflect your beliefs and/or ideas about classroom management.

1.     Creative class management is the art, or craft, of creating the conditions that provide students with enough security and structure for them to take the learning risks to required to develop personalized learning. Too much chaos leads to disorder - too much structure reduces the learners’ ability to make decisions and choices. Most current classroom management procedures are determined by unquestioned routines and habits that reflect a past age. B Morris

2.     Learning is too precious to be motivated by coercive tactics. Marshall Rosenburg

3.     “I’ve come to a frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It’s my personal approach that creates the climate. It’s my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or dehumanized.” Haim Ginott

4.     Violence is a tragic expression of unmet needs Marshall Rosenburg.
