 What is the first word that comes to mind
when you hear the term classroom
management?
Discipline? Control? Order?
A common misconception about classroom
management is that it is synonymous
with discipline.
 Classroom management can be defined
as a set of strategies that a teacher
creates and maintains in order to
establish effective learning environment
and promote positive students behaviour
in classroom.
Goals of classroom
management
Reflection Activity
Examine your current practices ...
Critical reflection is an important aspect of
both teaching and learning.
These reflection tools will help you to reveal your
weakest point so that you will know where to focus
your energy on strengthening the classroom
management practices.
Nine strategies for
classroom management
Strategy 1: Create an effective learning
environment
Benjamin Franklin said: ―Anounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.‖ This is particularly true of a teacher’s
actions during the first week of school. If you are one step
ahead of your students and their day-to-day needs, you will
manage the unexpected more smoothly when it comes
along. Students will recognize and follow the classroom
routine earlier and more easily if you are prepared. Students
will also see that you are in charge of your classroom, you
have high expectations of them and you expect them to
succeed.
Set rules, boundaries and expectations.
C R E A T E F I R S T - S T E P
C O M P L I A N C E
Establish a start to your class
and draw student attention to you.
This gets students engaged from
the start of every class.
Give students an easy "task"
at the beginning of each class.
Strategy 2: Establish classroom procedures
E X A M P L E S O F F I R S T -
S T E P C O M P L I A N C E
Say one of the following:
1. Everybody's eyes on me
2. Look at the screen
3. Point your eyes at the board
These simple instructions alert
students that class has started.
The key is to minimize complexity
and emphasize action.
Eyes
On Me
Classroom procedures communicate how to do daily
activities.
Teach and model procedures until they are routine.
For example
 Have students sit at their desks or in their groups.
 Have everyone get out the materials needed.
 Make sure all eyes are on you—use nonverbal cues.
 Test understanding by asking students, ―Whatis the
first step?‖or ―Whatare you supposed to do now?‖
 Work the first few questions or problems as a class
and have students record the answer(s).
 Walk around the classroom until you are sure all
students are on task.
Focus on building relationships- use QCT.
Strategy 3: Create a motivational environment
Encourage initiative-Promote growth mindset and use
variety into your lessons.
 Demonstrate consistently that you believe all students
will learn. For example, use short positive words to
praise good work and behaviour (e.g., great idea,
fantastic, good job, sensational, super).
 Create an attractive, enriched environment. Get
students involved by asking them to decorate their
own classroom. Use student work to decorate when
possible, to validate the work and to show examples of
good work.

E N T H U S I A S M
Being excited in your classroom improves
student interest, participation, and learning.
You're the center of your students' shared
universe whenever you are at the front of
the classroom.
Students feel the enthusiasm of a teacher,
which improves their attention,
engagement, and stimulation.
“You hear and you forget, you see and you remember,
you do and you understand.”
Strategy 4: Make every minute count
Begin on time. End on time. A few minutes of class time saved
every day could add up to hours of additional academic
Revision time by the end of the school year.
 Plan each lesson in advance. Well-designed lesson plans
have clear learning objectives and provide meaningful
activities for students to reach the objective.
 Divide your board into three sections: (1) the left side for
organizational points (date, objectives, homework); (2) the
central and largest section for ongoing work that can be
erased as the lesson progresses; and (3) the right section
for reference points which students need throughout the
lesson.
P R E P A R E
Y O U R S E L F
Teaching begins with preparation.
You should plan for interruptions, create
contingencies, and note areas for future
improvement.
The more time you spend preparing, the
fewer surprises you'll have in the
classroom.
Strategy 5: Keep everyone engaged
Challenging students to think actively involves them in
learning and develops critical skills. Expect both low and
high achievers to participate in classroom discussions and
answer questions.
Ideas to encourage all pupils to think
 Ask a question, wait three to five seconds (wait time),
then call on a student. Wait time encourages more
thoughtful responses and allows slower, as well as
quicker, students to respond.
 Use the echo technique: one student gives an answer
and you call on another student to repeat it. ―John, tell
us what Sara said.‖ ―Mia,rephrase Michael’s answer
for us.‖ This process reinforces correct answers,
involves more students, and improves listening skills.

Group work gives students an opportunity
to connect with one another.
It encourages relationship building, leading
to a more positive learning environment.
The only effort on your end is to ensure
students stay on task.
With new technologies like Google Apps,
there's never been a better time for
collaboration in the classroom.
Strategy 6: Master Transition
Transitions are key to a successful
classroom. Most teachers change gears 1-2
times each class.
That change is a crucial moment. Losing
student engagement is more likely to
happen during a transition.
Thankfully it's easy to transition with 5
simple steps.
H O W T O T R A N S I T I O N
S M O O T H L Y
5 Steps for Transitioning:
1. Signal for attention
2. Say "in a moment"
3. Give directions
4. . Say "go"
5. . Observe
Strategy 7: Practice Follow Through
For your students to respect you, they need
to respect your word.
They need to trust that you will follow-
through on what you say.
This produces happy students and
reinforces qualities like honesty and trust.
Your classroom will be a place of kept
promises and potential, keeping students
motivated.
Strategy 8: Remember To Play
American high school students are more
stressed than adults.
And when students are stressed, their
ability to learn is impaired.
Have a 5 minute break each class period to
help give your students a break so they can
learn better.
H O W T O R E D U C E
S T R E S S I N T H E
C L A S S R O O M
You can reduce stress in the classroom by:
1. Making jokes and encouraging laughter
2. Fostering creativity
3. Recognizing student accomplishments
4. Gesturing to encourage engagement
5. Staying positive
Strategy 9: Start a “Tech Off
Policy
Students today are more distracted than
ever.
Smartphones, tablets, and even watches
are adding to that distraction.
To keep your students on track, institute a
"tech off" policy in the classroom.

Positive Note
―Any classroom has the potential to become a
well-managed,
smoothly running classroom. A good class can
become a great class
if the teacher has solid, consistent classroom
management skills.
No one is born with management skills; they
are learned.’’
