• TIP #2
• Never talk when students are talking. I know
this is a fundamental, “No duh!” for veteran
teachers but it must be said. I remember
when I was a new teacher standing up in
front of the room waiting for students to be
quiet. It felt like an eternity. But it isn’t.
Stand and wait. Talking over students or
raising your voice reinforces that it is
acceptable to talk when you are.
How do you get students’ attention
without raising your voice when
they are working in pairs or
groups?
TIP #3
Use a chime or a bell. As soon as the
students hear the sound, they will
stop talking and return to their seats.
Use of a sound-maker makes it
unnecessary to raise one’s voice.
TIP #4
Projecting an online
stop-watch that counts down
as students are working not only
tells them how much time they
have left, but also motivates
them to focus.
But this is just classroom
management!
