While I said I don't want it to be a struggle session, cool headed good faith discussion is also appreciated. This just came up with some comrades of mine and I couldn't find the last post about it so if anyone has the link that would be great too.

I like it because it shows to them I'm not actually mad or upset but they just need to settle down a little bit.
Yeah. That's a very important rule I tell any new teacher: never, ever look mad. The consequences can linger for years if you do.
OMG yeah. I still feel awful for when a student cried after I told him he needed to stop slapping someone's butt too forcefully. Really learning a lot about how to moderate my affect which has been really helpful in the rest of my life.
