Chapter 5 Tasks Of Preparing A Classroom Management Plan

I learned that as a first year teacher, I should be over prepared for the best and the worst scenarios. Being under prepared is the worst thing you can do. I learned that before the first day of class, I have to have a plan for managing my classroom well. While, yelling at my students may seem like the best way to get their attention it is not. I have to use a calm but firm voice. I have to let them know that I am in charge. That means, I am the teacher and they are the students. I say what I mean and I mean what I say. I think that while having my own plan in place, if I notice that their behavior is better when they are in related arts classes, I could ask those teachers what they do to get them to behave correctly and respectfully. Since I will be working

The leadership team discussed specific outcomes that they want accomplish, taking into consideration the issues they want to address. After careful deliberation, they decided that they wanted to create a process of implementation with a feedback loop in which teachers and staff discuss each lesson. Documentation would be written down of what worked and what did not work and modifications could be done for the upcoming lessons. This could be accomplished by setting time for staff to meet and discuss lesson implementation, areas of strength and weakness. After discussion the staff would discuss and change the lesson plans to meet the needs of classroom. By crating this process of implementation staff can course correct

The Module 2 is covering Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC) Standards’ Standard #7: Planning for Instruction. Oh, I have a long list of questions related to objectives and lesson preparations. How to determine which parts to teach? When should I teach them? Are there any guidelines? Will I be able to choose books to use for the unit? Do I decide what is necessary and what is not? Planning is part of the job. I have no problem with it because I thrive from precision and planning. However, the amount of planning is excessive – to a novice. I have to check with the curriculum of my school district and the State. Also, I will have to ensure that my lessons abide the federal/state laws. But, that does not stop there. I have to acknowledge my students’ needs. There are several steps to validate my teaching.

The Classroom Management Plan artifact includes two FEAPs competencies, which are Competency 2 addresses the Learning Environment as follows: Knowledge of appropriate student-centered learning environments and Competency 1 addresses Instructional Design and Planning as follows: Knowledge of instructional design and planning.

The classroom management plan created in EDEL 441, details specific classroom management components that will create an organized, orderly learning environment in the classroom. While studying Fred Jones’ book, Tools for Teaching in EDFO 483, I learned how imperative it is for a teacher to have a plan for classroom management. When the classroom is organized and students know the teacher’s expectations and procedures, the teacher has more time to teach and students’ success increases because of this factor. Fred Jones repeatedly stresses the crucial point of creating a classroom climate that promotes a safe and secure environment where all students can learn. An effective teacher can create the appropriate environment by building a cohesive

The classroom management plan created in EDEL 441 contains a variety of components that are essential to managing the classroom. The classroom management plan encompasses a classroom climate statement, a plan for building a classroom community through classroom responsibilities, a classroom diagram, and a classroom arrangement statement. Additionally, the classroom management plan contains procedures for lining up and walking in a line, cafeteria procedures and expectations, and a statement of why teaching procedures is important to the management of the classroom. Furthermore, the classroom management plan provides information regarding the importance of using a variety of instructional methods, a behavior plan using positive reinforcements,

A teacher in the classroom setting is considered a professional in that environment because they have the training and skills necessary by which to create a setting which is conducive to learning. To aide in the establishment of a setting which is conducive to learning the teacher must create guidelines which help to provide structure for expected behavior as well as for the dissemination of information between teacher and student. Organization and careful planning are two elements which help to

I expect to face challenges and I know this will not be stress-free work, but expect to learn tremendously about myself as a person, developing new skills for myself and the students. I wish to challenge the students in my classroom positively, but also maintain that I should challenge myself as an educator. Together with my class, I would like to develop a positive classroom culture where everyone works together, students, paraprofessionals, and myself. I expect to have many questions and require support as I embark the teaching profession. Expectations for my students would consist of having a productive school year, where they are able to develop a positive relationship with me as I desire to do the

I tell the students on the first day that I am interested in them as individuals and that their progress and success in the class is extremely important. I explain the workload, the course goals. In the first lesson, I do a short ten-minute icebreaker exercise that gets students to know each other. I strive to create an effective learning environment where students can participate, engage, and experience real-world issues in the classroom. This motivates students to participate, making the classroom more interactive and helping them to appreciate others’ points of

My classroom management philosophy is evolved around the best way to facilitate knowledge to the students. All the students should have equal opportunity and access to learning within my classroom. I believe that students should have an element of fun and relaxation to make the students and teacher feel like a community. My teaching approach is authoritative/ democratic, using an instructional management plan, following an interactionist theory of teaching.

The effective teacher exhibits positive expectations for all students. Having positive expectations simply means that the teacher believes in the student and that the student can learn. Students will live up to the expectations you set, and to be effective- your expectations should be positive for all students. The effective teacher establishes good classroom management techniques. Classroom Management is practices and procedures that a teacher uses to maintain an environment in which

2) Create a safe classroom environment. Develop rules and procedures which provide a structured environment rich in routine and shared expectations. Develop and enforce rules prohibiting sarcastic, degrading, and berating remarks and comments by students directed at other students. In my classroom I implemented a "No Hunting" rule. No student may physically or verbally hurt another. Additionally, learn to use positive reinforcement instead of negative reinforcement to correct student behaviors. Lastly, provide copious amounts of praise and reinforcement for student risk taking. Become an advocate for each of your students. Take time out to let each student know how well they are doing. This could take the form of a short handwritten note on their papers, or verbal comment. The key is to focus on the students ' positive attributes and aid the student in developing an increased level of self-esteem.
