In Teaching Channel course 5006: Building Peace Through Restorative Practices in Schools teachers are introduced to a holistic approach to classroom management based on the principles of restorative justice in schools. While traditional classroom management often relies on a system of rewards and punishments to encourage positive behavior, restorative practices focus on building healthy relationships, fostering social and emotional skills, encouraging engagement, and empowering students to address and correct misbehaviors cooperatively.
When we invite students to take an active role in both preventing and repairing the harm caused by misbehavior, we build stronger school communities. Start engaging your students in restorative practices with this downloadable, straight from course 5006!
