Parents complain that their students aren&#8217;t respected. Teachers complain that they aren&#8217;t respected by students or parents. There&#8217;s a reason why respect is the first trait on the Honorable Character Chart &#8211; it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are still a few weeks left before summer, depending on your school district, but as you begin your usual end-of-year routines, take a few minutes to note trends.
You&#8217;ve noticed the positive character in your classroom for months now. Probably you&#8217;ve awareded 100s of Responsiblity marks to students who returned papers on time. Maybe there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week, one of my coworkers recommended that I look into Wong&#8217;s First Days of School. She described the book, because we would like to have a similar guide for using Honorable Character in your classroom (good idea?).
One of the things that struck me in Wong&#8217;s Classroom Management chapter was the importance of greeting your [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve heard many new users say of Honorable Character that it is hard to implement the program consistently. Or, conversely from a principal, &#8220;The program is working well in the classrooms where it is being used regularly. The teachers who are not consistent with Honorable Character are struggling.&#8221; 
This is true of any solution to [...]]]></description>

What happens if you tell a child that they were so respectful and they go and put an R and 10 minutes later they hit [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I read Ranting Stan&#8217;s blog this morning and was fascinated by the points he made about class size. According to this passionate Brit, the solution to effective learning is not to decrease class size. Instead, teachers should be free to discipline their class when necessary.
Stan cited as his examples both his own experience growing up (class sizes [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I found out about the Children&#8217;s Success School via the Slatest, but the original story was posted on the  Arizona Daily Star.
I can see the value in teaching students to identify healthy food. I agree that the children&#8217;s obesity statistics warrant drastic changes (exercise, anyone?). And I&#8217;ll concede that it&#8217;s reasonable to prevent easy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Kids spend a lot of time with media: cell phones, ipods, computers, TVs, video games, etc. You aren&#8217;t surprised. 
But the Kaiser Family Foundation has the numbers broken down pretty specifically. And their   45-slide presentation  is worth your time. 
I&#8217;m just wondering how much attention media gets from students during class?

		<description><![CDATA[I was observing a classroom a few days ago when I noticed a little boy raised his hand in the middle of his teacher&#8217;s instructions. This was not an ordinary hand &#8212; instead, his index and middle fingers were crossed. About the only sign language I know is the alphabet, and I was pretty sure [...]]]></description>
