Teachers who demonstrate effective classroom control are skilled five key areas. They area able to **__coordinate__**, **__communicate__** , **__check__** , **__coach__** , and demonstrate **__consistency__**. Technology can provide teachers **__resources__** in each key area. Create a culture that the students who are caught being good get to distribute the materials. The most effective behavior management technique is the easiest to implement..."catching 'em being good". Research shows us that the quickest and most effective way to promote the display of appropriate behaviors is to reward them (e.g., touch, a smile, a "thank you", praise, points, food,...whatever would be reinforcing to those youngsters). We all like to have our efforts acknowledged, and will show more of that behavior if it brings us rewards.
