I shared the link with one of my behavior classes and mentioned the article to the other class; they want the link now too! We had a great conversation about it in the first class this morning.
Clay (no relation) Cook from the U. of Minnesota and his colleagues conducted a study showing the effectiveness of teacher greetings at the door within a tiered system to support students' positive behavior: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1098300717753831
I wonder if there's a relationship beyond just the surface similarities between this instructional technique and the practice within some cultures, like that for more traditional Arabs, of going around and greeting everyone when entering a room or meeting.
For those teaching about classroom and behavior management, this video might provide an opportunity to give your students a break from having to listen and watch you!

I'm still hoping to link to videos from Randy Sprick's CHAMPS (https://www.safeandcivilschools.com/products/scs_overview.php). Stay tuned.
In the meantime, take look at this explanation of the practice by Laura Mooiman
