Thread: Anybody heard of Marvin Marshall?

I used it in Kindergarten -- but it is for all ages. In Kindergarten to teach "anarchy, bullying, cooperation and democracy" I did two things besides modeling. I used story books the kids could relate to to understand the behavior.A= Miss Nelson Is Missing; B= Three Pigs; C= Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs and D= The Hole In the Dike.

Along with these I use my BIG word of the week to describe the 4 kinds of behavior and the kids learn it.

I try to focus on good examples of the C and D and have them tell me what theya re doing wrong when they do A or B. It helps them to be responsible.

He was a regular guest at chats on another teacher site. I get his newsletter also. Much good stuff on his site [url="http://www.MarvinMarshall.com"]http://www.MarvinMarshall.com[/url]

I have never had an opportunity to use it with older kids. I don't use anything else. I love seeing kids take responsibilkity for their actions and recognize when they are doing each of the 4 behaviors
