We are all created differently, and we learn differently. Sit quietly and work might be suitable for some children, but this can be a punishment for others. Our brains process information in ways that is unique to individuals. Some people work well with music, while others prefer to work in a quiet space. One preference is not better than the other.

How we process information may look very strange or uncomfortable for others. For example, some individuals may need:

We should try to understand how children learn and not to label them or make them behave accord to our definition of ?good behaviour?. We must understand before we judge or medicate. When there is a misunderstanding of children learning behaviour, we exhaust ourselves as we try to put them into this ancient created box, called ?Sit Quietly and Behave?.

Do not try to change children, we must understand how they learn. Often it becomes a problem for the teacher and not the child, so the teacher later creates a problem for the child. For example, if a child always taps his/her feet, makes a loud noise and distract the class. The teacher can place a soft pillow for him/her, and this will eliminate the noise and there will be no distraction. However if the teacher always yells, ? X, stop making this noise?, this may worsen the situation. Remember all children want to behave and learn if they are presented with the right situation. Adults must try to understand and meet the need of the student. I believe that you cannot teach a child if you do not know him or her.
