Successors
Common misconceptions
  • Confusing 'rule' with 'thing the teacher says I have to do' (no internalized 'why')
  • Believing only the teacher works at school (forgets custodian, cafeteria, office, bus driver)
  • Believing rules are punishments rather than agreements that protect everyone
