"Use an anger options chart to avoid angry blow-ups."
Have a discussion with students about things that make them angry. Make a
list. On another day, make a list of all the things they do when they are
angry. Do not judge them. These can be effective or ineffective strategies
that they use. On still another day, together as a class, make a list of
all the strategies they can use in your classroom. Eliminate the ones that
are ineffective. When students get angry, remind them to use the effective
strategies they made.

"Think about the word, RESPONSIBILITY when teaching students to be
responsible."
The word responsibility can be divided into two parts: response and
ability. Before children can make the response, they have to have the
ability. They have to be capable of doing the job that needs to be done.
More importantly, they have to want to do the task! Set an example of
having fun doing the tasks. The more you make something like homework or
cleaning up shelves seem difficult, the more children will not want to do
it. Have fun helping your students have the ability to be response -
able!!!
Have a great day.
