许多美国教师会常把学生纪律守则当一节课来教，旨在帮助学生知道老师的要求，为什么和如何能做到。这里转摘的是一个初中老师的课案，希望能与大家分享美国教师常用的课堂管理方法和技巧。
(This lesson was taken from the Harden Middle School Hand Book in the United States.All credits go to this school.)
TALKING LESSON
Directions: Copy the lesson onto a separate piece of paper. Be sure to title it “Talking Lesson” and put your name on the top right-hand corner of your paper.
I understand that time is one of the most valuable things we have. Forty-eight minutes is so little time to do all the things we need to do in class, so it is vitally important to make every minute count. When I talk or goof off or disrupt the class, I am wasting valuable learning time. That is not fair to my teacher, my classmates or to myself.
I understand that it is okay to talk:
1. If I raise my hand and the teacher calls on me.
2.If talking is necessary to complete my assignment.
3.If it is free time and I have completed my assignments.
But I know that I must not talk:
1.When the teacher is talking.
2.When a student is asking or answering a question.
3.When the teacher has instructed the class to be quiet.
I can see that learning how to talk only when it is proper to do so is very important, so I will copy this paper as many times as it will take to show you that I have learned this lesson.

说话课
说明：将下面的课文单独抄写在一张纸上，别忘了在标题处写上“说话课”，并且把你的名字写在纸的右上角处。
我明白时间对于我们来说是极其宝贵的，要想在48分钟内完成课堂的所有内容，时间是非常紧凑的。因而，充分利用好每一分钟是极其关键的事情。如果我上课说话、开小差或是扰乱课堂的话，就是在浪费宝贵的学习时间。这样对我的老师、同学和我自己是不公平的。
我明白，在下面的情况下才是可以说话的：
1.在我举手回答老师提问的时候；
2.在完成作业的环节中必须要说话的时候；
3.在空余时间和我已经完成作业的前提下。
我知道以下情况我一定不能说话：
1.当老师在说话的时候；
2.当同学在提问或回答问题的时候；
3.当老师要求大家安静的时候。
我明白，学会只在适当的时候说话，是非常重要的。因此，我会尽可能多地抄写这张纸上的内容，用实际行动来告诉大家，我已经学到这堂课的真谛了。
