Classroom Management Plan

A. Theoretical introduction

Classroom management should be a uniform understanding of what is expected by every student that is in my classroom. They know that there are many unspoken rules that should be followed, as well as the spoken and the written rules that have been established. These rules that I have come up with in my class will be stressed during the first few days of school when the school year starts, ideally. These rules will not be used to restrict the students from expressing their own individuality, but they will serve to assist the positive flow of the classroom. The flow of the classroom will be one where student will feel comfortable, safe and able to learn. This can only be achieved if there is some sort of harmony among the students themselves. This harmony will be reached if the students have an understanding that the rules are to do just that, help their growth, academically, and that the rules are not to hinder their individuality. When it comes to the actual rules themselves, it would be best if the students themselves would be able to contribute to the development of the rules that are to be followed in the classroom. By allowing the students to contribute in the forming of the rules then the students will feel that they are part of the rules, they will feel a sense of ownership when it comes to the rules of the classroom. With that sense of ownership the students will then be more aware of the infringements of the rules by their peers and will consequently want to reinforce the rules themselves, thus keeping order within the classroom. Should students not follow these rules then the class will also have an order in which punishment, discipline will be car...

...want to get over with for that day. On the contrary, students want to get to this class and are awaiting their English class to begin when they are in other classes. When the time comes for the class to end they don’t want to leave because they have done a lot but that did not satisfy their thirst for enriching themselves by staying in the classroom for a mere hour. They want more and they can’t wait to return to class the following day to school.

In writing this I honestly do think that I could reach this for the students, I have to work a lot harder in my planning and I have to focus on overcoming the problems before they surface, this “dream class.” This could very well be within my reach, I just need to focus work harder and try to get the student more involved, oh and praying never hurt anyone either. I really think that I could do this for the students.

Not all of his actions were what would be considered moral today, and some were questionable even during his time. Yet, he acted as no other president had done so and wanted to have a government without corruption for the people. Andrew Jackson was born out of hardship and war, but he went on to achieve greatness.

  • Wonder Woman: A Symbol of the Feminist Movement

    Shortly after Superman made his appearance in 1939, a noted psychologist by the name of William Moulton Marston wrote an article in Family Circle magazine, praising comic books. According to Les Daniels in Wonder Woman: The Complete History (Chronicle Books, 2000, pp. 22-24), his article caught the eye of M.C. Gains of DC Comics. Gains was so impressed by the article, he hired Marston into a new position at DC Comics. Within a year, at the urging of his wife, Marston set out to create a female superhero. By February 1941, Marston handed in his first script for ‘Suprema: The Wonder Woman.’ (We owe a debt of thanks to whoever dropped the Suprema.) Marston created a unique heroine, based loosely on Greek Mythology. Diana was the Princess of Paradise Island, a mystical place inhabited by Amazons. Her mother, Hippolyte (sometimes referred to as Hippolyta), Queen of the Amazons, wanted a child and petitioned the Goddesses of Olympus to give her one. She was instructed to sculpt a child from clay. When she was done, the...

    The United States of America has had over forty presidents in his many years. Though many of them have made a significant impact on us as a country, no one has introduced as many conflicts as Andrew Jackson. I believe that Andrew Jackson was a successful president in his political tactics and implementations of new ideas but proved to be very unsuccessful in his maintenance of the social order and structure of the United States and the people in them.

The values of the Sasaki family are challenged in a way that most definitely describes a growing trend in our world, where family values are slowly disintegrating and people are accepting individual values over family values. In closing, the Sasaki’s appear to be on the right track towards unifying again, yet the reality is not clearly laid out.

  • My Classroom Management Philosophy

    586 Words  | 2 Pages

    My personal philosophy of classroom management focuses on creating an environment where children feel safe and where they feel like they belong. I will create this environment for my fourth grade class through making my expectations of the students clear while developing an engaging lesson plan and personable interactions with my students. I developed my philosophy from studying different theorists and based my philosophy on the theories of Glasser and Kounin. Glasser believed that the teacher’s roll in the classroom is that of a leader rather than a boss. He believed that students should be given power in the classroom and that the teacher should share it with the students. I will use his ‘7 caring habits’ specifically supporting and respecting to help my classroom feel safe and welcoming to my students. Meeting the individual needs of my students will be the focus of my classroom management routine. I will meet individual needs by promoting self management and self efficacy in my students by creating an environment that that has predictable and consistent daily routines while focusing on my student’s successes (Shindler, 2010). Having a predictable routine will encourage a success oriented environment and will reduce anxiety and help towards creating positive self efficacy in each of my students (Shindler, 2010). In Glasser’s Choice Theory he talks about focusing on the present and not bringing up the past (Glasser, 2010). Therefore, I will focus my classroom on being goal driven and will help each student obtain their goals. Thus, helping my students have positive self efficacy. I will apply Kounin’s technique of Momentum (Pressman, 2011). This involves the teacher keeping exercises short and moving around the room a lot so...

  • Classroom Management

    Classroom management plays an important role in effective teaching by providing a desirable environment which promotes better learning and student growth. The most important effect that classroom management has on student behavior is that it promotes better learning because students can better focus when their environment is free from distraction and conflict. When a teacher provides a well-organized and controlled environment, student’s academics interest and performance increase while behavioral issues decreased (Pope, 2010). One classroom management technique I plan to use in my future classroom setting will include the use of cooperative learning. According to Maher (2010), cooperation learning leads to higher group and individual achievement, higher-quality reasoning strategies, more frequent transfer of these from the group to individual members, greater metacognitive skills, and more new ideas and problem-solving. Students will be assigned heterogeneous groups with a mixture of high achievers with low achievers. Groups will also be created to ensure diversity between gender and ethnicity.

    This I Believe Philosophy statement will include my thoughts and beliefs about classroom management with comparison to other theorists’ models. The major theorists that will be mentioned are Barbara Coloroso, Linda Albert, and Lee & Marlene Canter. I highly agree with the Canter’s and Coloroso’s models of classroom management because it best fits my personality as an individual teacher. I believe that an affective classroom management plan is first practiced and then modeled for improvements. My ultimate goal for my Classroom Management Plan is to model self-discipline by teaching it through my daily actions so that students may be able to self-manage themselves accordingly.

  • Effective Classroom Management

    Classroom management is a key element to establish a successful learning environment in any classroom. An effective classroom management plan creates a positive learning environment. Classroom management is affected by the characteristics of the students and their behavior. Students’ behavior is influenced by their age, academic abilities, goals, interests, and home backgrounds (Evertson, Emmer, and Worsham, 2006). Teachers need a diverse array of classroom management skills to facilitate learning. A classroom with a proper management plan will spend less time in disciplining and more time in learning. Students in effectively managed classrooms know and follow clearly defined rules and routines. A classroom management plan should provide for several important factors that influence proper discipline in the classroom (Edwards, 2004).

I will focus my classroom around the student’s needs, rather than my own. The classroom will revolve around the students. I will be their guiding hand through education. Another goal of mine is to have the students interact in a positive way. Social interaction is very important. As students combine with peers they share knowledge and learn how to solve problems.

    Classroom management is a necessary component to every classroom. It includes creating a set of rules and clear expectations that all students follow. This helps unify the classroom for both the teacher and students allowing for a smooth, effective, and educational environment. When the students are aware of what is expected, they are motivated in order to attain the goals dispensed by the teacher. Some students are naturally motivated and want nothing more than to surpass goals for the sake of triumph and pleasing the teacher. Other students need extrinsic motivation in order for them to become engaged in
