Describe a well-managed classroom
ACTIVITY • Please list at least three ideas that, as a teacher, would be effective management procedures for your classroom? 1. 2. 3.
Situation one: • A student continues to talk in class and refuses to do any class work. He whispers, talks and does anything else that he wants to do. • What would you do?
A well-managed classroom is… • A task oriented environment • A predictable environment
