Classroom Management As A Functional Class

The most important factor affecting student learning is the teacher. If the teacher is ineffective, students will achieve inadequate progress academically. Effective teaching and learning cannot take place in a poorly managed classroom. If students are disorderly and disrespectful, with no apparent rules and procedures to guide behavior, chaos becomes the norm. Teachers struggle to teach, and students will learn much less than they should. http://behaviourmanagementreport.weebly.com/

Classroom management can be a difficult situation to stand by. Over the years, teachers and philosophers have argues which way is the right way to manage a classroom. There is not completely right way to run a classroom. What it all comes down to is who the teacher is and who the class is. There are some classes where the children have more say in what is being taught and how and there are other classes where the teacher is the one in charge of the day. In the end, classroom management can be the most beneficial to the students when they take responsibility and when time is used wisely.

Managing Small Group Activities Effectively. Although an instructor’s role should be minimized during an activity, it still must be managed. The groups should be divided by the instructor, the participants should know which topic they are working on, and the activity should be timed. I would have liked some kind of verbal instruction that helped all of the student know the learning outcome and why this task should be performed. The continual questions from the group could have been minimized with a little more intervention.

My classroom philosophy begins with what type of teacher I will be in my classroom. To have successful classroom management, one must be an effective teacher. Some qualities that make an effective teacher include maintaining high expectations, being consistent, and caring. As a teacher, it is important to have high expectations for your students academically, but also behaviorally. In my classroom, I will uphold the traits and characteristics that I want to see in my students, through my own actions and words. Another quality that I will instill in my classroom and myself is consistency. In my classroom, I will be consistent in my classroom management. I will not favor a student and let them get away with something, and I will not be overly harsh on a student who is having a bad day or week. One of the most important qualities in an effective teacher is their ability to care for their students. In order to have successful classroom management, I must build relationships with my students. The more that my students know that I care for them and want to help them,

First, I believe teachers’ clear and direct demonstration is the essential factors in classroom management. Whenever setting classroom rules and procedures, teachers have to show students what those are and how they are expected to behave so that students can follow them without any problems.

What do you think your students’ goals and concerns will be at the beginning of the year? How can your classroom management plan accommodate them?

Classroom management is a popular topic in education. Teachers are always looking for ways to improve their classroom environment, or new ways to deal with problem behaviors. For every person who has ever worked with children, there is an idea, a theory, as to how to best meet children’s needs. Early theorists provide the basis for many current behavior management ideas, and often include a combination of ideas. Theorists such as Abraham Maslow, Rudolf Dreikurs, William Glasser, and Stanley Coppersmith offer insight into the behavior and motivations of children that help teachers design strategies to prevent disruption and provide a positive learning environment for all students.

As a teacher, I believe one of the most critical components for facilitating student’s learning journey throughout their schooling years is to have a strong knowledge and understanding of classroom management theories and strategies. I will be describing my awareness and understanding of what my philosophy is at this current point in time. I want to recognise that an effective teacher will develop this view over time and it will be ever changing depending on the situation that arise. To be an effective teacher requires patients, a nurturing nature, understanding, consistency and also to have fun while learning. My personal classroom management philosophy involves creating a positive co-operative learning

My philosophy for teaching is that all students deserve the best possible education a teacher can provide them, and that education begins with classroom management. Classroom management is the foundation to a proper education. The way a teacher manages his or her classroom determines how the classroom will function and how much information the students are able to learn throughout the school day and school year. Students need rules to follow in order to keep the classroom running smoothly. Without rules, students will be unruly and will cause disruptions that will prohibit their fellow classmates from being able to focus and comprehend the material being taught.

Classroom management is one of the most important roles played by teachers because it determines teaching success. Effective teachers appear to be effective with students of all achievement levels regardless of the levels of heterogeneity in their classes. Effective classroom managers are those who understand and use specific techniques. Even if the school they work in is highly ineffective, individual teachers can produce powerful gains in student learning. Many techniques include classroom design, rules, discipline, scheduling, organization and communication.

When I think of classroom management I often picture a classroom in which students learning is being carried out with minimum interruption. Teacher is there as a facilitator of the learning process through authentic learning activities which allow students to share and exchange information through respective and cooperative manner. A description of a good classroom management for some teachers or administrators or even parents may be focused or aimed at the physical order of how the classrooms should look like in terms of students sitting at their seats or teacher pointing at a student to answer her question one by one. I depict the picture

A.        The philosophy that I am developing behind my classroom management plan is one that is based on clear communication with my students.  I believe that it is important to value relationships with students because that is the starting point of creating a classroom climate that is positive and consistent.  It is my goal to cultivate self-directed students so that the behavior management is not taking up lots of valuable class time.  Although school seems competitive in its nature because we use grades as the form of evaluation, it is my thought that competition in the classroom should be limited because this will increase better behavior and achievement in all students.  Promoting the success of all

My observations were done at an elementary school in an urban city. During the 2015-2016 school year, the report card states that there was a total attendance of six hundred-eighty-six students. Kindergarten consisted of hundred twenty-one students. There was a hundred twenty-nine first graders this year. Second grade had an enrollment of one hundred twenty-two students. Only ninety-seven students made up the third-grade class. One hundred and six students were enrolled into fourth grade. Lastly fifth grade had one hundred-eleven students. The school consisted of many different combinations of grades. While I observed the teacher, I witnessed how she addressed the different components found in a class.

I believe that it is the teacher’s responsibility to put in to place effective classroom management techniques, motivational plans and engaging activities to promote the learning process for students. With a diverse classroom, it is imperative that I implement an analytical framework in order to understand and work with students in the best way I know how. Below are some of the techniques I plan on implementing in my classroom:

By reflecting on my prior discussion questions and assignments, I have solidified the importance of establishing an all encompass classroom management plan in order to execute an effective learning environment. By refining my classroom management plan by incorporating strategies which enhance student engagement while decreasing disruptions within the classroom. For example by clearly stating expectations both to students and their parents, all parties are aware of the standards by which the classroom will function and the means by which failure to meet such standards will be dealt with and communicated. Or by responding to misbehavior by instilling habitude and kaizen characteristic in order to engage students to stay on task and develop skills to cooperate in group’s activities so they might achieve their goals for the 21st century learning
