Last Tuesday, Infant and Primary School families received, from the Infant School teachers Meritxell Mardaras and Inma Andreu, a session about Positive Discipline where they were able to discuss tools for managing day-to-day life with their children.
The session covered basic issues such as:

It helps to understanding behaviour of a child, looking for what is behind it. Behind all misbehaviour there is something that is making the child feel bad, and therefore misbehave. Thus, we seek to get the child to behave well by tackling the root of the problem (the cause) and not just the surface (the misbehaviour).
Knowing and understanding what is causing their misbehaviour helps us to connect with him and his needs. This connection will help us a great deal in dealing with disruptive behaviour and incidents in a gentle but firm manner.
It empowers us to teach them that their actions have consequencesbut without the need to humiliate him or her and make him or her feel bad about a wrongdoing.
It helps us to search with them solutions and alternatives to ensure that misbehaviour is not repeated, rather than focusing solely on the mistake, on punishment and on "making the child pay" for what he or she has done wrong.
We got the cooperation In this way, the children can bring out the best in each other and put themselves at the service of others in order to make the class as a whole well. In this way We all winThe learner feels good to do something for others and others feel good because someone does something for them. This gives them a sense of belonging to the very strong group.
It helps our students to resolve conflicts that arise between them in a respectful way (without hitting, biting or insulting each other), but assertively: letting the other person know firmly that I don't like what they have done to me, that I would like it not to happen again, and what we can both do to prevent it from happening again. In this way we are empowering them and equipping them with long-term, lifelong strategies.
