Classroom management relies on establishing rules, routines, and positive teacher-student interactions to create an orderly learning environment. Effective strategies include modeling polite behavior, developing classroom rules with student input, praising good behavior, addressing issues immediately but privately, and keeping things positive. For online learning, the teacher needs to build engagement, community, clearly organize resources, establish participation norms, and routinely contact and support students. Without good classroom management, teaching goals are difficult to achieve.

Management is more
than just disciplining
students. It is important
to note that we must

teaching and the ways
in which we involve our
students.

Use polite language
Maintain eye contact
Let one another speak uninterrupted
Raise concerns about one another’s statements in a respectful
manner

Encourage all students to participate
in the development of classroom
rules, since this will result in greater
buy-in than simply telling them
what they are not supposed to do.

10. Document rules
Don’t let your agreed upon guidelines go forgotten

11. Don’t punish the class
Address isolated discipline issues individually rather
than punishing an entire class, as the latter can
harm your relationships with on-task students.
“Stop talking and disrupting
other students”
“Do you have a question?”
“Pay attention and stop fooling
around while I’m talking”
“Do you need help focusing?”

12. Keep A Friendly Environment
This is a combination of modelling action, making constructive
rather than negative remarks, and greeting students with a smile
and a kind word.

13. Praise students for good work because it
improves academic and behavioral performance.
Offer praise
Inspire the class
Improve a student’s self-confidence
Reinforce rules and values you want to see

14. Encourage initiative
By allowing students to
prepare ahead of time and
deliver short presentations
to share key points of the
lesson.

15. Use non-verbal communication
To improve content delivery, use actions and visual aids to help
students focus and process lessons.

not require a specific product, allowing them to demonstrate
knowledge in ways that are naturally suited to them.
Work and learn at their own paces
Involve actively with suitable content
Demonstrate understanding effectively

17. Interview students
Interview students who aren't academically involved or exhibiting
prosocial behavior to learn how to manage them better.
Pull each student apart for a few minutes while running a group activity.
Ask about:
What helps them focus
Who they work well with
Their favorite types of lessons
Their favorite in-class activities
Which kinds of exercises help them remember key lesson
points

18. Address undesired behavior immediately
Don’t be hesitant to deal with students’ bad conduct,
when a student violates a written rule.
Be remember to talk to the student in private.

19. Be prepared
Develop lesson plans that suit your teaching style, accommodate
all learners, follow to curriculum requirements, and engage
your students' interest.

expect and what is expected of them.
