Print up flyers, posters, or business cards and distribute them to local area teachers, principals, and school secretaries. Meet with area teachers and principals to discuss their discipline programs. When you begin your classroom day, begin by discussing classroom behavior expectations. Ask students to help you by placing nametags on their desks or shirts, depending upon their ages. Older children do not like to wear nametags.
Youngsters like to make, decorate, and wear their own special nametags.
Always bring in some fun learning activities, in case the teacher s lesson plans are incomplete, non-existent, or too short to fill your day. Nothing creates havoc better than a roomful of bored children. Remember to be nice, but firm. Children don t really like change in their routines. Make this a fun day of learning for everyone involved.
