[quote=Anonymous]Not saying that it is right to do this--but, it may be for the benefit of the kids who do behave. When a child misbehaves so much, it appears that he is getting correction by doing this. That affirms to the other children that the teacher is not letting the other kid "get by"........Kids generally do not like it when others are disruptive at their expense. Unfortunately, it makes things worse, in many cases. However, having taught kids who were difficult, I can see how a teacher might do this. If it doesn't look like he is getting punished in any way, some other kids might take lessons from him. Again, not saying it is right, but sometimes teachers get desperate. I did not use this particular system--but, I can see how some teachers--especially young ones--might find it to be an "answer". I know that I did lots of things in my early years of teaching that I did not do as I matured.[/quote]
