Proactive classroom management strategies promote appropriate behavior and reduce or prevent misbehavior. Reinforcement is at the core of most proactive strategies. It is defined as a consequence that follows a behavior and increases the frequency of that behavior. Contingent praise is a versatile strategy based on reinforcement. Through positive statements delivered by the teacher, contingent praise acknowledges appropriate conduct and informs students what they did well. A rule of thumb is to maintain a 4:1 ratio of positive praise to corrective statements. Teachers should avoid the trap of becoming overly critical, which can damage the student-teacher relationship and lead to increased misbehavior. Other reinforcement-based strategies that use praise as well as material reinforcers include class-wide group contingencies, point systems, and behavior contracts. Material reinforcers commonly used in schools include tangible reinforcers (stickers, toys, food), preferred activities (games, computer time), and privileges (running errands, distributing papers). Additional proactive strategies are classroom rules and procedures, a structured environment, active supervision, and effective instruction; see\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.winginstitute.org\/effective-instruction-classroom\">classroom management drivers.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong>: Guinness, K., Detrich, R.,&nbsp;Keyworth, R. &amp; States, J.&nbsp;(2019).&nbsp;Overview of Supporting Appropriate Behavior.&nbsp;Oakland, CA: The Wing Institute. https:\/\/www.winginstitute.org\/classroom-appropriate-behaviors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Link:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.winginstitute.org\/classroom-appropriate-behaviors\">https:\/\/www.winginstitute.org\/classroom-appropriate-behaviors<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Supporting Appropriate Student Behavior Overview.
