DISCIPLINE
…To train or develop by instruction, especially in self control Webster new
Collegiate Dictionary.
It is the philosophy of this center to help children grow emotionally as well as
intellectually, to help children succeed, feel good about themselves and be able to
express their feelings in a positive and constructive manner.
It is our policy that discipline be positive. Discipline is not punishment. It is a
way of helping children learn to identify socially acceptable behavior.
Within our Center, limits and rules are clearly defined, consistent and in accord
with the appropriate development and age of each child and the program in
general. We focus strongly on reinforcing acceptable behavior and preventing
undesirable behavior by being responsive to the needs of the children.
Methods of correcting inappropriate behavior within the center consists of the
following:
1) Re-direction of activities to change the focus of a childs behavior.
2) Individualized attention to help the child deal with a particular situation.
3) Time-away by removing a child for a few minutes from the area or
activity so that he/she may gain self-control.
4) Catch the child being good: we respond to and reinforce positive
behavior; we acknowledge or praise to let the child know we approve of
what he/she is doing.
Discipline shall not be isolation without supervision nor withholding food or
attention. No child shall be subjected to corporal punishment, emotional neglect,
abusive language, ridicule, or any behavior that shall intimidate, frighten, or
endanger a child, or his/her self-image.
