Classroom Management- prompt 6

When browsing the web for classroom management articles, I was excited to stumble upon one called Classroom Management for "Specials". Sadly, after reading the article, I don't feel I agree with most of the authors ideas or strategies. The author suggests using too many scare tactics, rather than establishing a positive rapport with the students. It seems that when kids go to "specials", such as, music, PE, health, they are more apt to misbehave. In turn, I feel that there is higher burn out rate for those teachers. As mentioned in some of my previous blogs, prior to this year, I taught my own classroom and was even department head for 15 years. For the first time in my teaching career, I feel like I am having to put extra effort into establishing a close rapport with the kids I have in my classes. I don't think I realized before how much this effects special teachers, or those who only teach one or two classes.
