Anytime an assignment is missed after this, I will pull the contract out and explain to them the importance of their word.

By this he means those who havnt met their physiological needs (ie being tired in lesson) will not be able to focus in class. Once they have met that they need to feel safe in class so that they can concentrate as they will feel comfortable. They then need to feel accepted by the other students in class, once they feel accepted they can build up their self esteem meaning they can reach the last step of progressing well in their
