  1. CI 402 EClass #9March 28th 2013 Classroom Management Reading Lessons Continued

  2. The Best Classroom management strategy is a good lesson plan… • How are you engaging ALL students? • What are different modalities and learning styles that your lesson addresses? • Is your lesson broken into developmentally appropriate time chunks? • When you see a student acting out, the first thing we tend to examine is the student behavior. Try to flip this on its head. What am I doing that might be contributing to this behavior? This does not mean you have to blame yourself, but it does require an important degree of reflection.

  9. The best management strategies are:

  10. Skills you must have to manage effectively.

  11. Think Positive

  12. Types of Problem Behavior

  13. Management Strategies

  14. Some items for your management tool box • A count/check or demerit system with a hierarchy of consequences (warning, time out, after school meeting/detention). The key to this working is consistency. You should have some sort of visual display and assign checks or demerits uniformly and non-emotionally. • Non-verbal indicators: A class-wide noise chart. Colored index cards that coordinate to various rules. Notes placed on students’ desks reminding them of what they should be doing. Hand signals • Withhold privilege or desired activity (think about: what will this do to student motivation?) • Isolate or remove students (Think about: What is school’s policy on this? Can students take a “time out” outside? Is their behavior such that it is so distracting that it is better for them to miss instruction? Think about a time-out area a place to create a written reflection or a teacher buddy system before referrals to detention/dean/principal). • Refer with caution! You are your own authority. Think about yourself as a state court. If you turn over authority to the supreme court, you are deferring to an outside arbiter. Students will remember this. It also damages your relationship with the student. Design an individual contract with students • Hold a parent conference.

  15. I cannot emphasize enough… • Look to yourself: • What is your tone? • What is your body language? • What are you feeling? How is that conveyed to the students? • Where are you in the classroom? • What is going on in your lesson? • Look at your classroom: • How is seating organized? How is seating assigned/not assigned? • How are other pieces of furniture that students interact with organized (library, computer station etc.) • What is the flow of movement for you/students? • What is the focal point/center of attention? Does it shift? • Where are expectations posted? How will students visually know how they are doing/what they should be doing?

  16. Looking ahead… • April 4th = Lessons from Irini & Sarah + Lynnette Monica’s up for food • April 11th and April 18th are planning sessions for the unit, which is due on April 25th. • The format is almost identical to last semester • However, you must use a single central text (supplemental texts allowed and encouraged) by an author traditionally underrepresented in the canon • The lesson must be for 6th 7th or 8th grades and attend to their developmental needs (reference article from 1st day of class). Think carefully about this. I warned you my texts skew older and many responses have indicated that they would teach a certain text for a high school rather than a middle school • Use the next week to discuss on the blog and in-person about groups. Consider: • What books you have read that might overlap • You may not work with someone you are teaching with this semester (either in my class or in your placement) • Groups of 3-4 • If you struggle, I will assign groups next week. • Ideally each group has a different text. Use the blog to discuss this (i.e. we can’t have 4 groups doing part time Indian.

  17. If you still feel stressed about reading 5 books: • Watch this documentary on PBS and sub in as one of your responses. It is 4 hours in total. You must watch at least one section, but of course I recommend both! • Check this website for local listings • http://www.pbs.org/programs/180-days-american-school/tv-schedule/
