Kyla Keyes - Classroom Management Plan Final 1
Kyla Keyes - Classroom Management Plan Final 1
Philosophy- Giving students choices makes them realize that they have one chance
to fix their misbehavior. They either try again and fix it or they get the consequence,
simple as that.
Example- “You can either get your work done now or stay in for recess.” “You have
a choice… you can either stop talking and respect me or you can go to the office.”
Philosophy- Even though you are mad and frustrated, the student is likely feeling
the same way. It is important to stay calm during conflicts so you don’t make the
students' behavior worse.
Example- Keep your voice calm and quiet instead of yelling. Don’t grimace or roll
your eyes… instead, show them a caring look.
● Teacher is firm, but also calm and compassionate (doesn’t yell or intimidate)
Philosophy- Yelling and becoming angry at a misbehaving student will likely make
the situation worse. You must stay calm and show the student that you care about
them and that you are trying to help them.
Example- Talk one on one with the student, show the student that you genuinely
care about them, treat the student how you would want to be treated.
● Consistent follow through with consequences once they are earned (doesn’t make
the same request over and over)
Philosophy- You must be firm in your rules and consequences so the students know
not to cross the lines and test your limits. The students will try to break the rules
again and again if you aren't consistent with the consequences.
Example- No means no; students aren’t allowed to beg or ask for the same thing
multiple times. Or, if a student is misbehaving they will only get one reminder to
stop. If they don’t stop there will be a consequence no matter what.
● Arguments/debates are delayed, done in private
Philosophy- Your goal as a teacher should be to help all students succeed to their
highest potential, but to be fair to each and every student while doing so.
Example- Every student should be treated fairly, meaning they all should get the
same attention and respect from the teacher.
