Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I have struggled with this as well. I found that I had the best days when I started the class with a greeting to each student followed by the rules I expect and a reminder that everything that happened throughout our day would be provided to their teacher. Taking them time to say hello to each student and reiterating the rules helped take the edge off the behavioral issues.
