  1. Classroom Management Preparing for the First Days of School By J.O.

  2. Teach Like Your Hair’s on Fire “This is the issue that overshadows all others in the world of education. It is the matter of classroom management.”

  3. “If your class is not in order, nothing good will follow. There will be no learning. The kids will not read, write, or calculate better. Children will not improve their critical thinking. Character cannot be built. Good citizenship will not be fostered.” --RafeEsquith

  4. Effective Classroom Management will Minimize Discipline Problems in the Classroom “Effective teachers manage their classrooms with procedures and routines.” (Wong, 2005)

  5. “Ineffective teachers discipline their classrooms with threats and punishment.” (Wong, 2005)

  6. A Classroom of Fear • “The teacher is afraid: afraid of looking bad, of not being liked, of not being listened to, of losing control.” • “The student is even more afraid: afraid of being scolded and humiliated, of looking foolish in front of peers, of getting bad grades, of facing their parents’ wrath.” Teach Like Your Hair’s on Fire by RafeEsquith

  7. The Purpose of Education To Make the World a Better Place

  8. We spend so much time trying to raise class averages

  9. We push students to run faster and jump higher

  10. Shouldn’t we also try to help them become better human beings?

  11. Replace fear with trust

  12. Give a positive and patient response to all questions

  13. Children depend on us, so be dependable

  14. Discipline must be logical Once the kids see you as unfair, you’ve lost them.

  15. You are a role model

  16. I am considerate of other people If we can help kids achieve a state of empathy for the people around them, we’ve accomplished a lot.

  17. I have a personal code of behaviour and I follow it A personal code of behaviour resides within the soul of an individual. Teach this by pointing out this behaviour in others.

  18. At the core of classroom management is the culture of the classroom • Display bright posters and student work • Post your expectations

  19. Create a positive classroom environment • Develop clear and effective procedures and routines • Clearly communicate expectations for behaviour • Teach all procedures to your students. Rehearse and reinforce as necessary. • Be consistent • Be prepared

  20. My Pledge to Students • I will trust you until you give me reason to do otherwise. • I will respect you and work with you to solve problems. • I will promptly correct and offer feedback on your work. • I will work with you to meet learning goals. • I will offer extra help and alternative assessments should you require them.

  21. Eeks! It’s the first day of school! Relax. It will be a good day.

  22. Plan your lesson • Plan too much • Photocopy everything you need before Labor Day Weekend • Organize your materials • Write an agenda on the board • Write a “script” for what you will say to your students • Prepare a seating plan • Prepare a “bell work” activity

  23. It’s show time! • Be sure you have used the washroom • Greet students at the door • Instruct students to find their seats and begin the “bell work” activity • Close the door when the bell rings • Discuss expectations • TEACH classroom procedures
