As a teacher , I have tried many ways to make my classes quiter. One of the methods I implemented in my classes.       Last year with my 3rd graders ,I used a method based on tickets.Each student has 3 tickets.In an  inappropriate behavior like  talking without raising hands or speaking in mother tongue (You can add more), they have to give one of their tickets.If their tickets are all gone,they don't have a chance to take a big star on the behavior list I prepared before.You can try this method.It worked in my classes :) The great behavior game       As you all know, new school year is coming .I have started to search for some classroom management tools and luckily I have found this one. If you are an inexperienced teache...
