WHAT IS CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT?

Classroom management refers to the ways in which student
behaviour, movement and interaction during a lesson are organized and
controlled by the teacher.

How should a teacher maintain Discipline

 Teacher should maintain order and keep the group on task
moving ahead, and then not to punish those students who
are misbehaving.

 The best teachers always precede when misbehaviours are

likely to occur and involve oneself early to prevent them.

 The most effective intrusion are noticeable and almost private.

 They do not interfere with classroom activities.

 Causes of abnormal behaviour.

Few Class Rules

 At the beginning of the school year, we should establish the
class rules.

 We should discuss Classroom rules with the students and

consequences of misbehavior.

 We can Post room rules and consequences of misbehavior.

How students can be seated

 The way how the students are seated in the classroom will often
determine the dynamics of the lesson.
  Indeed, a simple change in the seating pattern can make a
difference to group unity and student satisfaction.

 The seating has been a main part in the success or failure of the
lesson especially for the students who aged between 4 and
5years of learners.

 In some cases, the desks are fixed to the ground, but we teacher
can change the seatings accordingly.

 We teachers have different preferences for seating arrangements

each group is seated round small tables is often one choice.

 This is probably the best option for the larger classes where they
can fix.

 Teachers can try and maximize eye contact and we should make
sure students are seated at a comfortable distance from each
other.

How names of the students can be set

 We teachers can Make two sets of name tags one for the desk,
and one for the child to wear around the neck to special classes.

 We Teachers can Hang name tags on a hook by the door.

 Should have a brief talk to student.

 Teachers can Communicate positive expectations to students

like convey confidence in students “ability to do well and
maintain high expectations”.

Teacher and students attention

 We teachers should not speak when children aren't listening
and ready. We can always Wait.

 Teacher can Establish a signal for getting the group's attention

 1. Can turn off the lights
2. clap a pattern with hands.

3. Say “Freeze!” and everyone halts right where they are, like a
statue. Then say “Melt!” when teacher is ready for them to
move again.

 Teacher can Practice maths basics in the beginning, even

when children are doing well, so that they get the idea of how
to respond to a signals given by the teacher.Then a teacher
can praise them.

Example: “ one ,two ,three

eyes on me”

 Teacher should establish good listening habits for story time.

Sometimes we read and listen, and sometimes we read and
discuss, but we always listen.

Teacher giving instruction

 It is better to make instructions for students precise.

 Can use puppets to help with classroom management.

Puppets can whisper in the teacher's ear, and we teachers can
write messages to the class.

 Compliment leadership in students. "Oh, I like the way sunil is

ready!" will cause everyone to turn to look at the ready student
and to get ready also.

 Teacher should use the same standards for everyone.Teacher

should not show partiality to any student. Teacher should
think all are same and maintain the standard

Applying pair and group work in class

 Teacher can motivate the students to use “pair work and group
work”.
  Language is best learned to communicate among students. This type
of cooperation benefits for all or both learners.

 In such cases learners can help each other while working on

different types of tasks such as writing dialogues, interviews, drawing
pictures and making comments about them, play roles, etc…

Setting Time Limits

 Teacher should set time to each activity when planning for a lesson
so that teacher would know if she or he be able to finish the
objectives or not.

 Teacher should tell the students about the time assigned for each
activity when teacher give them a task to do in class.

Role Play
 We teachers are advised to use the role play activity in order to
motivate students

 For example that we can state, the hide (item) and guessing game,
An interview of customer and shop assistant, doctor and patient
conversation, etc…

Tasks for the student who finishes soon

 This happens when students finish an assignment while other
students are still working on it. That’s why a teacher need to
include an “early finisher” activity with every assignment.

 We teacher always need to think in advance for possible

activities, related to the current topic, writing, silent reading,
and educational games
Feedback from whole class
 Finally we have to take a look at the following classroom
exchange:

Whole class: He bought a cake. (check in which the teacher hears

the answer)
Teacher: And number 4?
Whole class: He drank apple juice. (check in which the teacher hears
the answer)

 This sounds familiar .This is how the teacher have pattern of

getting feedback ,it is the easiest way and the quickest

 This is how the teacher finds more confident in students.

 Feedback is better checked through each student’s response

on a written form paper.

Whiteboard

board or get the kids to know them at the beginning.
