Finding the formula for success transforms…
• Josh’s story
• “Every child has within him or her a formula for
effective learning and authentic success. We can
enable a child who has differences in learning to
understand himself and to be understood by the
adult world.
• This model provides a means for understanding
and managing weak school performance whenever
a child’s brain functions can’t keep up with
demands.” (Levine, 2002, One Mind at a Time).

Culturally Relevant Strategies
Encourage use and sharing of primary language in reading, writing, and
speaking
Highlight students’ countries of origin on a map
Be aware of differences in communication styles
Reaffirm connectedness/community by having a class discussion
Group desks together and share materials
Show specific interest in students as individuals, by greeting students at
the door or being aware of extracurricular events they might have
Verify that assignments do not alienate certain students due to their
background
Have high expectations for all students; differentiate only as needed to
help students achieve success
What other strategies do you use?
SCARF
SCARF is a cognitive tool, a heuristic*, for quickly and
easily recalling the potential impact of your actions on
others (and others’ actions on you), thus enabling the
possibility of different choices. (*heuristic: tool that
helps you problem solve quickly)
Used with Developmental Stages of a Team
Forming, Storming, Norming, and Performing

SCARF in the Classroom
“Social threats in particular, such as a fear of looking
bad in front of your peers, can inhibit high quality
perception, cognition, critical thinking, creativity and
collaboration. Having a memorable language for social
threats and rewards allows us to notice these
experiences at several points that we may not
otherwise: before, during, or after an emotionproducing event.”

Classroom Applications
Teaching with Love and Logic
The Four Key Principles of Love and Logic
The Enhancement of Self-concept
Relationship building “I noticed that…” Getting them to love
you.
Deposits in emotional bank account
Through Ebony Eyes by Gail Thompson “Effective Strategies
with Students of Color p65
Shared Control
Consequences with Empathy
Shared Thinking
“All effective systems allow people to learn from the
results of their own decisions.” p26 Love and Logic
Teaching with Love and Logic
The Three Basic Rules of Love and Logic- how to apply
the 4 principles in the classroom
Use Enforceable Limits
Provide Choices Within Limits
Apply Consequences with Empathy (Consequences
don’t have to follow immediately)
http://www.loveandlogic.com/t-what-is-for-Love-andLogic-teachers.aspx
Enhancement of Self-Concept
1. I’m loved by the “magic” people in my life. Establish
a relationship of unconditional acceptance and respect.
Give positive relationship messages whenever a
negative content message is sent.
“Just because I like you, I can’t let you get away with
that.”
I know more about my strengths than my weaknesses.
Don’t remind kids of their weaknesses, but praise them
for their strengths.
I can handle consequences of my own behavior. Don’t
rescue kids from inside or outside pain of
consequences.
(10-2)
Shared Control
Teachers gain control by giving some of it away.
Do I want to control kids or do I want to obtain their
cooperation? We either give control on our terms, or
the kids will take it on theirs. (p139 Love and Logic)
Establish classroom rules through discussion.
1. Give choices that are legitimate and equally acceptable
to you.
2. Your delivery is important. Try to start with:
You’re welcome to ____ or _____.
Feel free to _____ or ______.
Would you rather ______ or _____?
Example Chart p. 154
Consequences with Empathy
and Shared Thinking
Give the child the opportunity to be involved in the
solution/decision making. Demonstrate problem
solving techniques if the child cannot solve problem.
Administer the consequences with calm interest. Be
empathetic.
Give students the opportunity to develop a new plan of
behavior for next time.
Use “anchoring” to lower the student’s emotional
state- lowered tone of voice, calm demeanor
Heads down, lights out, write it out
