Three Models And Theories Of Classroom Management

Student discipline is one of the most important aspects of the classroom. I believe that structure and classroom management are two components that contribute to this greatly. Teachers in the beginning of the year must implement rules and routines that all Students are expected to follow. It would also be beneficial if the students took part in creating these rules. Within the first weeks of school, the teacher and students should be practicing these procedures so that students can get comfortable with the routine and know what is expected of them. If the students are aware of the rules of the classroom then there will be no surprises when the consequence is given for breaking them.

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/

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,

Although I enjoyed the novel Lord of the Flies, I don’t completely agree with the author’s sentiment that if left along, people would grow to become brutish, selfish, and unruly. And although I do believe that human beings need some sort of social structure or guidelines because we are social animals, I whole heartedly believe that human are basically good and that if let to develop in a nurturing environment, we would grow into self-responsible and noble creatures. I believe that acts such as selfishness are definitely learned behaviors. Therefore, I think as my approach to classroom management, I would adopt the approach of a “nurturing” supporter. I believe the role of teacher is someone

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

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

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.

I am heavily influenced by theorist Jacob Kounin where he believes that teachers prevent misbehavior through awareness in the classroom and by using effective lesson management techniques to influence student behavior. I believe that primary prevention is fundamental with dealing with classroom management, the key is the set the ground and to accommodate to those who need more attention such as student with unstable emotional behavior and learning disorder as students are increasingly showing signs of anxiety in classrooms. It is important to respect the student’s dignity, enabling them to grow in confidence and to be comfortable within their classroom environment where positive classroom management strategies will be utilized

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

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:

After meeting my teacher and seeing the overall design of the classroom I have found some positives and negatives of the design. In order to have an effective classroom management plan, you need to consider the five processes of classroom management, organizing the physical design, establishing rules and routines, developing relationships, implementing engaging instruction and addressing discipline. The first step, organizing the physical design is one of the most essential step towards and effective classroom. When considering the design of the classroom you should consider the children’s security and shelter, social contact, and task instrumentality. I strongly believe a child must feel comfortable in order to want to learn. If you student

Teachers who incorporate the use of effective classroom management procedures promote independent learning and a greater success for their students in classrooms that are orderly, pleasant and productive (Rademacher, Callahan and Pederson-Seelye, 1998). Establishing routines that help to manage time, instruction, materials and student behaviour is essential to increasing student involvement across all areas of their learning. My approaches to creating rules for classroom are aligned with Dreikurs Goal centred Theory where facilitating mutual respect and understanding about rules, procedures and responses to misbehaviour is fostered. As Richard Curwin and Allen Mendler (1988) demonstrate in their research there is a great importance of student input in the establishment of classroom rules and procedures which should be viewed as a contract between the two. I would like to create a classroom constitution for any inconsistency in behaviour where students can be involved in the making of rules as
