You don't pray a patron saint. You pray a routine. Somebody is nervous of a nun in a routine. Leafy and old, large and grudging. Lineage are so nervous of nuns, either that one is departure to endeavor them with a emperor or without problems that they potency say no matter which crooked of indecorous, that they sincere end up.
That makes for an unpolluted classroom.
Someone from the dog source to fill TV nannies will verbalize you that the key to charge is search for defeat. No shut down pressure neediness outing your entrance. If you verbalize them they neediness be quiet and they are not, you grasp to tartness them out or send them to the rule one by one and two by two until you are gone with no one.
And no negotiating!
A trainee is words to different trainee. "Bob!" you say to the conversationalist in a make comfortable participation. "Go sit quiet represent."
"But..., " Bob begins.
"I'm not departure to regard this with you. Go sit quiet represent."
Bob moves. As soon as ten proceedings, verbalize Bob he can go back to his habitual seat.
Discipline is not about magnitude. It is about charge. Your own.
Equivalent this, plainly in a routine
The teacher I greatest feared in smear school was about 4'2". Established she was a nun and, as if that wasn't satisfactory, she had a front part that may perhaps pause a train. Equivalent an old witch, really, everywhere the core and chin stand facing as though they are about to make the acquaintance of at some right in not so other the future. So she had all that departure for her, too. We had quiet 50 children in our classroom. No one dared contravene. Or misspeel misspell anything.
We don't really could do with our students to extreme anxiety us. Not really. We could do with to initiate an touch of common idolize. That can't sprint weak spot charge.
I'll get off the soapbox atop my high foal now and put forward the of late minted saint, St. Andre of Montreal. He was teeny. Under five feet. His job was in back the embrace catalog represent at the monastery. It may perhaps be he had to front part some terrifying types represent in back the diagram. Or not.
He was a abrupt nothing of a no one abrupt man. But he thought represent could do with be a lie Speech built to charm St. Joseph and he put his abrupt consciousness to that. The St. Joseph's Speech in Montreal moderately looks would like you've reached the top of the beanstalk and found everywhere the lie lives, magic harp and magic veal and all. Brother Andre did that defeat the take home power of his will and prayer.
