The Importance Of Classroom Management And Discipline

School is a place where individuals grow, develop, and explore their future interests. This necessitates that the classroom is an environment where students feel supported, respected, and competent. I

My classroom will create an environment that is emotionally supportive through mutual respect. Students will be taught in the beginning of the class coursework a brief on the basic human needs so as to get to get to appreciate the different needs of others and the importance of treating each other with respect and dignity. Because a classroom should function as a community, I will provide growth opportunities for my students and ensure that through activities like get to know your classmate we get to learn more about each student. Students will be taught to embrace diversity and as such treat each others’ opinions with respect even though they are allowed to intelligently and respectfully disagree with such opinions. Through class integration and cooperation, conflicts will be solved using the set procedures and through appointed leaders and the

Conscious discipline is a comprehensive classroom management program with a social-emotional curriculum developed by Dr. Becky Bailey, an internationally renowned expert in child development psychology from Oviedo, Florida. Dr. Bailey’s intent on creating conscious discipline has proven effective. It is a longtime leader in integrating classroom management and social emotional learning. It utilizes everyday events rather than an external curriculum. This program is based on current brain research, child development information and developmentally appropriate practices with a purpose to make changes in the lives of adults first and in turn, the adults will change the lives of children.

I believe that I should be prepared to inspire my students with an environment that is conducive to learning. My classroom will be bright and colorful with words and pictures throughout. My goal is to provide a safe environment for learning, exploring, and self-expression. Children learn better when they feel that they are safe and cared for. I strive to make my students feel comfortable in my class.

I strive for my classroom to be a place where children feel comfortable. In the classroom children should feel comfortable enough to express what is on their mind and how they are feeling when discussing different topics. I want to create a space where every idea is valued. I will do this by doing

I want my students to know from Day 1 what my classroom is about and how they are expected to behave in my classroom. I will make sure to implement that mutual respect the moment they walk through my door. All of my students should feel like they belong and are welcome in my class. They should know they while they are in there they will be treated fairly and equally. I will also remind students of the expectations constantly.

I hope to create an inviting classroom environment for my students by making sure that my classroom is bright and cheery. I plan on doing this by making sure that the decorations and visual aids that I use in my classroom change with the season, but also that they change in subject matter also. I will make sure that all of my students feel welcome and safe by talking to them and listening to what they say and what they don’t say. I hope to also create an atmosphere that parents will want to visit and enjoy being in so that they will in turn want volunteer and help out the students which will also back the students feel more relaxed in. I hope to be allowed to arrange the desk in such a way that the students will feel more free to interact with

Children see the world in a different light than anyone else. They also learn differently than each other. I also believe that teachers need to differentiate instruction and build in adaptations so that children will understand the concept. Classroom management is also key in how children learn. The environment must be comfortable and promote learning. Assessment will also be used daily so that student progress is recorded. The instruction can be adapted to fit the students’ progress in order to meet their goals. I will have individual goals for students so that they can all be challenged but able to scaffold and build off of prior knowledge.

Students need and desire structure to make them feel safe. They way in which a classroom is managed is directly linked to the learning that occurs in the room. Without a clear set of rules, procedures, and expectation, much of the instructional time could be spent on management issues rather than quality lessons. I will establish a procedure for all things in my classroom. I will begin reviewing and practicing these procedures beginning on the first day of school.

I want my students to know that I value their education and success. My students will know that education is their foundation to the future. By being successful in the classroom, the students will go on to be successful in life. Students are like sponges and soak up any and all information provided to them. My overall goal is to make sure that my students know how important their education is because they are our society’s future. The students will grow up to be our future doctors, lawyers, and presidents. The sky is the limit, but in order for them to succeed, their education comes first and

Teachers are not only expected to teach their students, but also provide an environment where everyone feels safe and can learn. Classroom management is a very important part of teaching. Students cannot learn in an unsafe, disruptive environment. This paper will discuss the strategy of SHAPING, how it is used to modify a student’s behavior, and give an example of how to modify a student’s behavior. This paper will also discuss my personal beliefs about classroom management, share rules and expectations for the classroom, rewards for individuals and the class, designing the classroom where the teacher is visible and there are no distractions, and discuss some classroom procedures and how they contribute to classroom management

In order to provide a safe-learning for every student in a class it’s important to have specific rules in place to help assist with classroom management. For example, its important to have specific classroom rules in place, establish classroom routines and procedures starting at the beginning of the year, along with seating charts that provide students with the best learning opportunities that match their individual needs. Students should feel safe in the classroom to participate in class discussion or ask questions when needed to enhance teacher and peer relationship. The suggestions above will go into more detailed below.

My classroom environment is designed in relation to the learning opportunities provided for students creating a positive, warm, and welcoming classroom environment. My classroom will foster a diverse atmosphere. This is important so each student may learn. I will have plenty of resources in my classroom that foster learning and allow students to feel comfortable. I will make my students feel comfortable in asking me questions. My classroom will be a tactile environment no items that will cause distraction to the students. I will also have items to help students relieve their anxiety. My classroom will foster student centered learning and students will be autonomous and will be able to work collaboratively on projects.

It is a fact that classroom management and discipline has always been a challenge to pre-service teachers as they do not know and have not acquired the necessary skills to deal with unruly learners effectively. Often so, teachers in service use strategies that are incorrect or rather unacceptable; whether this is done intentionally or under certain desperation to gain control and respect of the learners. It is prevalent across the globe. Although the South African system has used corporal punishment for many years to maintain discipline and management in the classroom; there have always been other alternative ways which are effective and better as opposed to the harsh way of discipline. The Constitution of South Africa specifically banned the use of this harsh treatment because of the awareness that children are vulnerable and defenceless; therefore they are the ones who are at risk of being victims of crime, beatings and psychological trauma that are an ultimate result of being bullied by adults. My claim is that strategies used to maintain classrooms in public schools are not acceptable if they cause a negative effect to the development of our children. And I will argue that there are other alternatives that could be used to make sure that the classes run smooth and without causing any intimidation to either the learners or teachers in this industry, as the South African Journal of Education mentions that

As a future educator, it is extremely important to prepare for what is in store for each year. Every single class is different, and will bring something different to the table based on the different students in each class. It is extremely important to have a classroom management plan for a group of diverse learners for several reasons. From reading Wong’s book First Days of School, How to be an effective teacher, he states that after doing research in a study reviewing 11,000 pieces of research that spanned 50 years, three researchers determined that there are 28 factors that influence student learning, and the number one factor is classroom management. This is very clear that research backs up how important classroom management is. It is what allows teachers to be effective teachers for their students and are able to keep the students on track. Classroom management also offers organization in the classroom. It refers to all of the things a teacher does to organize students, space, time and materials so that learning can take place (Wong 1998). Without classroom management the entire class would be out of control and very little to no learning would take place.
