I love Michael Linsin’s website. He is the balance of common sense, accountability and compassion.

One of the things I see a lot in his articles is NOT having a special separate behavior plan for more challenging kids. I know in this age of differentiation of everything that's not a popular idea. But having lowered expectations and standards sends a message to the "problem" kid that he/she isn't capable of behaving. These separate standards also often erode classroom community and general respect for classroom expectations. Just my experience.

I like that what he states is just common sense.
