THE NEED FOR STRUCTURE1. Few students function well in chaos2. Even though students pretend to like the freedom to do
whatever they want, whenever they want, most prefer structure and routines
3. Before the first day of school, teachers should prepare a tentative list of procedures essential for the organization for the classroom
4. The entire class should discuss the rationale for each procedure and have some input for the final adoption
