Strong Classroom Management Plan

Dimension 3.1, classroom environment, routines, and procedures, the teachers is expected to organize and maintain a “safe, accessible, and efficient classroom” (TEA, 2016, p. 15). Dimension 3.2, managing student behavior, focuses on establishing expectations for behavior. And dimension 3.3, classroom culture, consists of creating a culture of mutual respect in which all learners are engaged (TEA, 2016). The focus of this domain is to ensure an orderly and safe environment for all learners by maintain high

My philosophy of classroom management is that the management of elementary classrooms require several things.  Among patience, determination and motivation are: flexibility, careful planning and consistency.  A well-managed classroom did not get well-managed without a teacher who planned, had a flexible vision and was determined.  Any new teacher, who is asked, will say they want a classroom with as few behavioral problems as possible as well as one that is easily manageable.  But any experienced teacher, who is asked, will tell those new teachers that classrooms do not come "well managed".  They have to be made into well-managed classrooms.  These experienced teachers would also encourage by saying

In a diverse classroom each student will be attended based on their individual need and teachers will meet each child at their level. Student will be treated equally regardless of their cultural background or socioeconomic status. By providing a good classroom management system, we will have a respectful and inclusive class culture. Establishing good classroom routines is essential to creating a positive environment for students to focus on learning. The follow sections cover those routine in our class

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. During the process of learning and completing the classroom management plan artifact, I recognized it is imperative to create a student centered appropriate learning environments that will maximize the potential for students’ academic success and behavior self-management. I am aware of the importance of managing the classroom appropriately, such as, the importance of organization and space, using effective techniques for

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

My philosophy of classroom management is to allow students to be responsible for their own behavior at all times. I believe allowing students to be responsible for their behavior and actions allow them to have a sense of freedom. When students have freedom, they seem to be more successful and respectful. Classroom management is more successful when the class is student-centered. Students should be included in the planning of classroom rules, room arrangement, and communication should flow smoothly between teacher and student. Although the class is student-centered the teacher should be in control of the classroom. The teacher should know what is going on at all times, plan interesting and informative lessons, and be

Creating my future classroom for first graders I chose rules that were similar to the SMART classroom management. The rules that I will put in place will target only behavior issues, separating my expectations in the classroom separately. This will allow less confusion for young students, as well as keeping it clear and simple for students to understand the rules themselves. Rules for my class room will be listen and follow carefully the instructions of the day, raise your hand before you speak or leave your seat, shows respect to others, keep hand, feet, and objects to oneself. I want to motivate students to make good choices, for each consequence students break the will have to think about their bad choice they made and how they can do things differently to improve their behavior. Behavior continue I would have to talk to student privately advising them that bad choices are being made and if they continue this route the next level would be contacting parents for bad choices made during class time. Either by sending a note for parent to sign or by phone.

I believe that my classroom management plan will provide my students with a safe and supportive learning environment by allowing students the freedom to grow while offering support when they need help moving forward. A middle school classroom should be a nurturing place where students can come to learn without constant judgment from their peers or teachers. The teacher should create an environment that keeps children safe from physical harm as well as create a classroom culture that is supportive and caring. In order to create such a culture the teacher needs to use the correct management models such as the Positive Discipline model and the Cooperative Discipline model. With these two model in use I believe I can create such an environment.

Classroom management is extremely important for new and existing teachers. Without classroom management, you will basically have a class of chaos. Teachers should view classroom management as a “Mystery”. According the article ‘Why Viewing Classroom Management as a Mystery Can Be a Good Thing’, students can be very unpredictable. There are countless moving parts in a classroom every day, and the trials of adolescence often make them change every minute. This means that classroom management can be a constant changing tool. Teachers should prepare for the worst and hope for the best. An effective classroom-management strategy rests on two foundations: building relationships and having a positive attitude.

I believe my role as a teacher is to lead the classroom. My role is to provide

My hybrid classroom management plan that combines the Canter and Canter Assertive discipline style and Dreikur’s Democratic Teaching and Management procedures allows me to incorporate the students’ opinions and ideas into the classroom rules and procedures. This allows for a sense of community and shared responsibility between both myself and the students to insure that the rules are being met. By allowing the student to have a say in how the classroom will run day to day makes them feel like they have a place and a value in the classroom. It is also important that I foster a sense of fairness by upholding the agreed upon rules without any bias so that the student know what to expect when rules and procedures are either followed or not. This helps the students feel supported in the classroom as well as nurtures a safe and inclusive learning environment.

Teachers are expected to create meaningful and engaging instruction aligned with the Common Core State Standards, while also creating a classroom management plan that enhances student achievement. Jones and Jones (2013) quote Woolfolk and Weinstein (2006) in their book, Comprehensive Classroom Management, stating that “What students want are teachers who establish caring relationships, set limits and create a safe environment … and make learning fun” (2013, p. 59). I strive to achieve this in my classroom each day as I greet students at the door, shaking their hand and making small talk with them, establish fair and consistent rules and procedures, and by building positive student-teacher relationships while making learning fun through the use of hands-on-activities, role playing, and creative constructions.

Classroom management is a key element to establish a successful learning environment in any classroom. An effective classroom management plan creates a positive learning environment. Classroom management is affected by the characteristics of the students and their behavior. Students’ behavior is influenced by their age, academic abilities, goals, interests, and home backgrounds (Evertson, Emmer, and Worsham, 2006). Teachers need a diverse array of classroom management skills to facilitate learning. A classroom with a proper management plan will spend less time in disciplining and more time in learning. Students in effectively managed classrooms know and follow clearly defined rules and routines. A classroom management plan should provide

Effective classrooms have a positive and purposeful atmosphere, where students and teachers feel valued, and work together in a supportive and safe environment. The effective classroom is one where students learn, and teachers help them to do so without spending much of their time managing 'problem' or 'difficult' behaviour. However, this is not an easy task, and at one time or another teachers may experience difficulty in maintaining a harmonious working environment. The main focus of this chapter is to explore ways of establishing and sustaining a purposeful, working atmosphere in the classroom. Behaviour management and maintaining discipline is clearly a concern for teachers when seeking to establish themselves in a new school context
