Puppets look cool.

Was doing some reading this morning, reviewing Ray Lewis's articles and another great article you should all check out 'Giving Students What They Need' and it seems as though the 2 most common theoretical perspectives are Dreikurs Theory and Glasser's Choice Theory. Found some great stuff relating to how to practically apply both theories in the classroom.

So, in terms of format I was thinking:

We pick a couple of key themes/behaviours and format as follows...

1 : Narrator introduces scenario
2 : Role play incorrect procedure - key theme might be impulsive anger reaction to behaviour
3 : Quick discussion with class as to what was wrong with method just role played.
4 : Narrator introduces next roleplay with an introduction to the theoretically based procedure - must also include here relevance to contemporary classroom as these theories date back to 60s.
5 : Role play correct teacher response based on theory.
6 : Discussion in which we make explicit differences in way scenarios were handled.

Im happy to write up the narrator dialogue but first we need to come up with the roleplay issues.
