The teacher gives the student two options to redirect their behavior, increase self-control, and increase responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Choice to Redirect is a strategy that redirects an off-task student. There are a couple of ways this can be done. The first way would be to say something along the lines of \u201cYou can work on your math or you can be reading\u201d rather than scolding the child for talking. It is also important that punishments are not included in the choice such as \u201cYou can stop messing around or you can go to the office\u201d because it could make them upset and escalate the situation. The second version is when a child is unintentionally spacing off. Rather than bringing them back to the lesson by calling their name and asking them to answer a question they clearly missed, get their attention and then ask the question. This reduces the odds of making the student feel insecure and embarrassed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"172\" src=\"https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2018\/11\/Genes-have-over-60-influence-on-academic-success-300x172.jpg\" class=\"size-medium alignright wp-image-632\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2018\/11\/Genes-have-over-60-influence-on-academic-success-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2018\/11\/Genes-have-over-60-influence-on-academic-success.jpg 467w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>This strategy would be filed under the Corrective Phase because it is correcting anti-social behaviors that are being expressed by a student. Such behaviors can include: goofing around, not paying attention, and disrupting the class. It would also be seen more as a student-directed or as a collaborative tactic because the student is given the option to redirect provided by the teacher. The two work together to get the student back on the task of learning and giving their peers the opportunity to learn as well. Since the student has a hand in their redirection, they may be more willing to cooperate.<\/p>\n<p>More Information &#8211;<br \/>\nTool Source: Vitto&#039;s article &quot;Creating and Implementing Effective Consequences&quot; and class discussion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This strategy is helpful because it allows the student to take part in the decision making.
