From the Conscious Discipline website www.consciousdiscipline.com
"With Conscious Discipline, we can learn to discipline differently than we were disciplined, break the cycle of “do as I say, not as I do,” and discipline our children without permissiveness, aggression or guilt." "Conscious Discipline integrates social-emotional learning, discipline and self-regulation so you spend less time policing behaviors and more time teaching vital life skills." "[Conscious Discipline] Defines discipline not as something you do to children, but something you develop within them." Conscious Discipline is a program that fits well with Responsive Classroom, which is used school-wide at John Rex. The materials below are now in all 4 PreK classrooms. With Responsive Classroom, we already had a Safe Place set up in the classroom. It is an area for students to go when they are mad, sad, or just want to be alone. We now have a Choice Board for our Safe Place, along with stars and posters to help students as they learn to identify their feelings and learn to regulate their emotions. Some of the strategies on the choice board are shown below with descriptions, so you can begin to use them at home if they are needed, as well!
