    Choice Theory Classroom Management is an approach developed by Dr. William Glasser based on the idea that students behave based on their internal needs and perceptions, not in response to external factors. It focuses on building positive teacher-student and student-student relationships through democratic classrooms where students have freedom and choices. The five basic needs—survival, love and belonging, power, fun, and freedom—are emphasized. Teachers help students meet these needs through connection circles, empowerment, interactive activities, and allowing choices rather than using punishment and rewards.
