Conscious Discipline

Conscious Discipline
                                                         Conscious Discipline helps build the school family and it sets limits respectably. We have several Conscious Discipline tools that we use in Ms.Grossbier’s classroom,  including  the Safe Place, the Time Machine and instant replay, meaningful jobs for the class, We Care Station, picture rule cards, and class meetings. In the Safe Place, we have feeling buddies which are used when you feel sad or mad or for whenever we are having a bad day, we can come in and write in the journal.The purpose of the picture rule cards is to empower students while setting limits. The skills that picture card rules help to create are Composure, Encouragement, Assertiveness, Choices, Positive Intent, Empathy, and Consequences. We also use C.A.R.E.S. in the classroom in conjunction with Conscious Discipline.The C in C.A.R.E.S. means Cooperation,The A in C.A.R.E.R.S means Assertion,The R in C.A.R.E.S means Responsibility,the E in C.A.R.E.S means Empathy, the S in C.A.R.E.S means Self-Control.
