The Redemption Approach: 5 Timeless Principles for re-engaging Tough Kids in School
Ed Orszulak
This resource provides a fresh approach to managing and helping students who are resistant or non-responsive to more traditional forms of discipline in schools. It provides a series of alternative strategies and lessons that can be useful for classroom and special education teachers, counsellors, social workers, administrators and other educational professionals who are in contact with students who exhibit very challenging attitudes and behaviours in school.
Grades 6-12
Included in this book are suggestions, strategies, activities and reproducible worksheets that incorporate the five redemption principles. These keys can be particularly helpful with students when other methods seem to fail to bring lasting positive change:
1. Forgiveness: sincerity, renewal, respect, apology
2. Restitution: reflection, privileges & opportunities, appropriate responses
3. Recovery: interpersonal relationships, connecting, recognition
4. Humor: setting the stage of humour, using class clowns as leaders
5. Inspiration: 5 steps to re-engagement, inspired
listening, positive recognition
