At TLG, we’ve found that Positive Discipline works best for helping children develop self-discipline and responsibility, and for guiding them toward a more peaceful classroom environment. Positive Discipline focuses on the belief that children need to learn how to manage their own behavior and solve their own problems. Mutual respect between teacher and student is essential, as is the ability to effectively communicate and problem-solve. Rather than using punishments or permissive methods, Positive Discipline employs discipline that teaches, encourages, and focuses on solutions. Encouragement is used to build self-esteem and empowerment, and to recognize effort and improvement rather than just success. TLG has found that this approach is far more effective than traditional methods in helping children develop self-discipline and responsibility. Positive Discipline encourages peaceful classrooms, and is a great way to help children learn how to manage their own behavior and solve their own problems. At TLG, we use this method to build mutual respect between teacher and student, and to foster effective communication and problem-solving skills. Discipline that teaches, encourages, and focuses on solutions rather than punishment is used to recognize effort and improvement, and to build long-term self-esteem and empowerment.
