The deduction of points for misbehavior is known as response cost. This is a type of punishment where something desirable (in this case, points) is taken away as a consequence of misbehavior. Time-out is a different type of punishment where the student is removed from the situation and given time alone to think about their behavior. Restitution involves the student making amends for their misbehavior, such as apologizing or repairing damage. In-house suspension involves the student being removed from the classroom and supervised in a separate area.
