To teach walking into the classroom procedures, it should be communicated on the first day of school. A teacher should talk about why it is important, list the steps on the board, maybe model the steps, and then have students practice. Some of these procedures are:
1) Students will walk into the room quietly, keeping their hands to themselves.
2) Sit down at their assigned seat.
3) Raise hands if they need anything, get materials for the next class, or if they have a question.
4) If no materials are needed, they will quietly get to work on an assignment they have with them.
5) If the teacher talks to them or gives instructions, the student will listen and follow directions.
Transitioning from one class to another can be problematic.

4) Line up at the door in the classroom.
5) Walk quietly toward class when the teacher gives permission.
The end of the day procedures will be taught starting on the first day of school also. Steps can be listed on the board have students rehearse them. The steps are:
1) When the last class of the day is dismissed, walk into the room quietly with hands to yourself.
2) Gather homework or other materials from the desk and put things in a backpack.
3) Sit at the assigned seat.
4) You may talk quietly.
5) When bell rings, walk to the door and walk down the hall to exit.
The classroom routines that should be undertaken will be mainly based on the time for cleaning of the classroom, the furniture arrangement, and duty roster for each of the individuals that will be involved in the cleaning process. Other areas that should be considered include the arrival and departure time from the classrooms. It will be important that students should arrive at the same time or a difference in no more than 10 minutes. This will give them a conducive environment for preparing them for the learning process. The development of routines is important in addressing the class management issues and this is integral in the planning process. For the routines, the attendance of students is important and the teachers should provide students with information on the daily attendance record and reward them at the end of the week. The cleaning of classrooms
Get students to participate in clean up activities, then have an assistant continue to clean up while you move students to new tables or to a sit-down area on the floor.
Each student was responsible for cleaning up the area they were last at and walking quietly to their number for circle time.
Firstly, etiquette makes an agreable and a peaceful classroom. These days, there is a misconception that etiquette is about formal behavior. The foundation of etiquette is kindness to others, treating others as you would like to be treated. Although many of its rules evolved into f...
What are my procedures during class interruptions? I will have certain whistle blows so that the students know what to do. If I blow the whistle once, they will know to stop and be quiet. If I blow the whistle twice, it will be for students to get dressed. If I blow the whistle three times, it will be for students to begin their assigned activity. Interruptions to physical education can be tolerated more easily. After instruction, students will basically know what they are required of. If an interruption were to occur and someone needed me, I could tell them exactly what I wanted done when I left and they could complete until I got back. If I found out someone wasn’t doing what I asked, I would/could take points off. We would just have to deal with interruptions over the
Establish a sense of responsibility by creating rules and expectations as a class. Have clear visual cues of responsibilities and consequences around the room. Use the support of other staff in implementing classroom management strategies. Use the school discipline system to monitor student behaviour. If students engage in misbehaviour, they receive a warning and are then sent to the timeout desk to reflect and write in the timeout book.
- For cafeteria procedures, the student start from the playground. They would line up and go back inside the building around 10 minutes early to get their hands wash. We would take them to the rest room, and have boys and girls make two lines and start to wash their hands and use the rest room if needed. Once done, one student will carried a big basket that held the lunch boxes that they dropped in before the morning start. Inside the basket are also their I.D. for students who eat school lunch.
Creating a set of rules is beneficial to all students in the classroom. First, I gather students around the carpet area and get their attention by
Addtionally, I will make sure that my body language is not threatening or aggressive towards the student. By titlting my head, opening my palms, nodding my head, and smiling, I hope to show the student that I am there to help them and guide them into a better mindset. Lastly, if the student needs more time to calm down, I will offer him/her to either write down theiir thoughts and feelings at their desk or they may go to a place in the back of the classroom to calm down. I will offer to speak to them afterclass afterschool, or another time we can arrange. I will also offer the options of leaving the classroom to see a counselor or sitting in another teacher's classrooom (prearranged) to change the environment for them in order to calm
I try imparting into them the importance of an education and how they contribute to the growth of our society. In my classroom, I am in control. I draw a clear line between what and how much my students are allowed to do in the classroom. In the first week of school, I establish my authority and I clearly and explicitly express my classroom and outside the classroom procedures that will be followed and the rights that every student has in the classroom. Some examples, all students have the right to learn, all students have a right to be heard, and all students have a right to be respected. There are consequences for those that chose not to abide. This set the tone for my classroom environment for the entire year so, that learning may take
Classroom management has the largest effect on student achievement, so students cannot learn in poorly managed classroom. Additionally, research has pointed out that the quality of teacher-student relationships is the main aspect of classroom management.(…2). Furthermore, when teachers set classroom management plan, the plan will give structure to everything from seating to lessons to grading to the relationship between students. Teachers should incorporate strategies for addressing student behavior into classroom
... lunch room, distributing materials, carrying messages to office etc. These tasks can be assigned to different students every week. Effective teachers make sure that every student has a job so that they feel responsible. These activities can also be used to reward improved behavior (Evertson, Emmer, and Worsham, 2006). Jones describes routines as operational rules. Jones says, “Operational rules must be specified to provide for smooth operations, which include materials to use, when to sharpen pencils, get a drink, go to the bathroom, how to get help and how the class is dismissed” (Allen, 1998). An effective way of establishing routines would be considering each and every minute detail of classroom activities. Children should know the importance of rules and routines in the classroom and it is a teacher’s responsibility to teach them (Canter &Canter, 1992).
Teaching classroom rules and procedures will contribute to a safe and secure environment for students. Classroom rules should be the same for everyone, however, like I mentioned above there are exceptions to be made on an individual basis. All interactions within the classroom should be positive. There will be no teasing or harassing of any kind. Respect, trust, and understanding will be the foundation of classroom rules. It is important to keep an open mind and treat each student with fairness, with the hope that in return students will learn to treat each other as equals and with
Every teacher must have a set of classroom routines and procedures to maintain order in the classroom. When entering the classroom, students will enter in a quiet manner. They will sit at their assigned desk and have all material ready to begin on required work. Once the bell rings and the door is closed, students will be seated and working. Tardiness is unacceptable and if the student receives more than three unexcused tardies per nine weeks, a referral will be given to the office and a phone call will be made the parent or guardian. Also, students should not be more than three minutes late to class. This will result in an automatic referral to the office.
The rule that was one of the first ones that I encountered being in this classroom was her noise level rule/chart. There was a chart hanging in the very front of the room that enforced and reminded the students of her noise level rule, and she frequently referred to it. This rule was one that the students new well and followed it without a problem, it is also one that I wouldn’t mind using in my own classroom. The rule is that the students have different noise levels that are expected from them, the level they are supposed to be at is given by the teacher after the students are given the rules of an assignment or test. The first level is level 0 it means that there should be absolutely no talking, then there is level 1. Level 1 means that the student can whisper to their neighbor (shoulder buddy) but the person that is sitting across from them shouldn’t hear them nor should the teacher. The next level is level 2, it means that you can quietly talk to your group, this would be used if there was any group work going on, but the tables surrounding you should not be able to hear you. Then there is a level 3, level 3 is the classroom discussion level meaning that anyone in the room can hear what you are saying. I really like this classroom management technique because I personally think that the noise level and talking of students is the hardest classroom management to maintain. She also uses a
My classroom management starts with a well-organized, clearly labeled classroom layout so that my students can easily access the resources they need for my class. I display visual aids and reminders around the room to support the students and I display their work in specific places around the room to give them a sense of belonging. I create routines and procedures to support the students and enable them to form smooth transitions between activities. There is a certain way they enter and leave the classroom, distribute books and papers, and move their desks and chairs. In my classroom these mundane tasks are completed quickly, competitively, and with enthusiasm. Having routines in place helps students understand exactly what is expected of them and gives them confidence in their actions.
