CONSISTENCY
Teach acceptable behavior through modeling, explanation, and practice. The most important classroom rule is Follow directions. Teacher has to identify students routine procedure and academic activity before determine the specific directions that students need.
When teachers give students clear expectations and consistent followthrough, most students choose appropriate behavior. (Canter,1974; Canter & Canter, 1976, 1992) Teacher should always practice positive repetitions by praising the students who managed to comply with class rules. Eg: Siti remembered to raise her hand.

<eg: Do not talking or make noise while teacher is teaching in front of the class or else you have to be the first person to come out in front and present your answer> * Students know that they have rights and that they will be respected.

VERBAL RECOGNITION
Lee and Marlene Canter said that verbal recognition is the most effective technique for encouraging responsible behaviour. (Charles & Senter, 2005) Effective verbal recognition should be: Personal. Mention the students name and the desired behaviour. Genuine and sincere. Related to situation and behaviour, delivered in a convincing manner. Descriptive and specific.

Use positive repetition.
Focus on the students who behaved appropriately, not on those who did not. Rephrase directions into positive comments while praising students. For example, Good job, Pauline. You went back to your seat quickly and quietly,
