The attitude and effort you go into any task can dictate the results. This is how I
approach everything in life, especially teaching. This could not be truer in the aspect of
classroom management. Without proper preparation, it does not matter the rules in
place. If students are not engaged or do not have adequate challenges, they will more
than likely misbehave. The next layer of effective management is establishing a culture
and climate of high expectations and respect with support from teachers and peers. As
a teacher, I expect students to work hard in class and accomplish at a high level
regardless of background. If a student is missing information or has gaps in skill or
knowledge I as well as other students are expected to help. Each student will also be
respected regardless of skill, knowledge or background. The next piece of my
classroom management style is daily classroom interaction. Having a positive attitude
and establishing rapport with each student and class as a whole will allow me to keep
them engaged as well as differentiate lessons, supports and disciplinary action to each
student or class. Finally, I will utilize resources outside of class to create effective
classroom management. This includes in school resources such as other teachers, past
teachers, guidance counselors and other people in or out of the building. Also, this
includes working closely with parents and understanding support available or
unavailable at home. This tiered system of management allows students to be
supported at every major level and will translate into successful habits and behaviors
within the classroom in the form of student achievement.
Creating an environment that students can feel comfortable to share ideas is one
of the most important aspects of school. Students should feel pushed to be successful
and have strong ideas but should not feel as though they are censured by anyone in the
classroom as long as what they express is respectful and promotes improvement and
learning. In a social studies classroom, I expect there to be conflict within the aspects of
the course and varied viewpoints. Conflict also arises peer to peer and teacher to
student. These conflicts will be met with the foremost thought of respect for one another.
Each student will feel as though their view is respected but does not always have to be
correct. The voice of students should not be silenced for the sake of what is always
accurate. Corrections can be made to content but once a student feels their voice in the
room does not matter then they will stop participating and possibly stop learning.
card and not receive a penalty on the extra credit. Any other tardy after that will be met
with a fee of one credit card slot and then escalating to detentions and onward.
Cheating or plagiarism will not be tolerated and will be met with the fullest extent of
school policy punishment.
Classroom Layout
Parents as Partners
During my time Student teaching, I filled out a weekly web page for students as
well as parents to feel informed of what was going on in the classroom. This included all
homework assignments for the whole week posted the Friday before the week began
and all major announcements from class. Also, extra copies of major assignments could
also be found on this page. Also, contact with parents about any potential issues is
crucial to student success. 504 meetings as well as IEP meetings must be scheduled
and attended to understand exactly what support might be needed and what support the
student is receiving or should be receiving at home. Also, regular communication with
parents about other in class issues such as constant late work or misbehavior can lead
to a better understanding and possibly a solution as well.
