Motivating the middle to behave

One of the challenges facing teachers can be behaviour.  Have a look at this discussion:

To what extent do you recognise his classification of the different 'groups' of students? Think about your classes and some of the questions that are posed to evaluate your use of praise and sanction to motivate this 'middle group' to behave.

What one thing could you try in your next lesson with a class that has this 'middle group' which could help manage the behaviour of the class? Let us know in the comments what you are going to try, and the impact it had.
