The document discusses how to create a positive classroom environment through structuring the physical and emotional aspects of the classroom. It recommends arranging desks in small groups or a U-shape to facilitate discussion and collaboration. It also stresses the importance of the teacher-student bond and using strategies like greeting students personally and acknowledging positive behavior to build students' self-esteem. While self-esteem is important, research shows that achievement, not self-esteem, leads to improved performance and that students need to believe they can succeed through effort rather than innate ability.
Teaching is a very important job and once you get your classroom management skills in order you will be enjoying teaching more and will have a more productive teaching career.
The most important element of classroom management is allowing your students an opportunity to understand that your rules are a part of giving them the best education possible.
Classroom Management Success is a turnkey intervention strategy for establishing and sustaining an orderly environment so students can engage in meaningful academic learning, it also aims to enhance student social and moral growth. Classroom management is a multi-faceted activity. It extends beyond some of the more traditional behavior management techniques frequently recommended to deal with students with disruptive behavior. The aim of Classroom Management Success makes sure that teachers are doing the following:
-develop caring, supportive relationships with and among students;
-organize and implement instruction in ways that optimize students’ access to learning;
-use group management methods that encourage student engagement with academic tasks;
-promote the development of student social skills and self-regulation; and
-use appropriate interventions to assist students who have behavior problems.
This program is based on proven and time tested techniques and principles that have been implemented in the book, “The First Days of School: How to Be an Effective Teacher,” by Harry K. Wong and Rosemary Tripi Wong. Classroom Management Success promotes an orderly learning environment for students. It enhances students’ academic skills and competencies, as well as their social and emotional development. Classroom Management Success principles work across a number of subject areas and grade levels.

Free, Online Scale of Student AutonomyBen Mitchell
This Scale is a free online self-assessment questionnaire to evaluate a student’s sense of educational autonomy -- intellectual independence and self-directedness. With more than 650 responses, grades 7-12, we developed statistical norms and percentiles, as well as three statistically correlated sub-categories. This workshop examines the paradigm of student autonomy, reviews the research and examines practices to encourage student autonomy. We all know the magic when our students become empowered, independent learners. Here is a tool with which to assess autonomy.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

22. Group 1: What causes good and bad grades? "I can be proud of myself." "I can do this." "I am better than most of the other people in this school." "I am satisfied with myself." Students who did not improve were thinking: "I'm ashamed of myself." "I don't deserve to be in college." "I'm worthless." BOTTOM LINE: Hold your head--and your self-esteem--high.
23. Group 2: What causes good and bad grades? "I need to work harder." "I can learn this material if l apply myself." "I can control what happens to me in this class." "I have what it takes to do this." Students who did not improve were thinking: "It's not my fault." "This test was too hard." "I'm not good at this."

The physical space is the groundwork for the type of classroom you run. The Information: You are the teacher of a year 8 class. The class is relatively small being comprised of 12 students. Within the class you are aware of students with the following circumstances: Student A - ADHD tendencies, constantly seeking attention and going off task in class. Student B - Identified as having RD, 3 years behind class. Involved in peer-assistance program. Student C - Physical disability and is confined to a wheelchair. Top performing student. Student D - Diagnosed Asperger’s. Only likes to sit next to student B. Student E - Extremely shy, does not like to work in groups, exhibits poor task management skills. The Task: You have three options for your classroom arrangement: rows, groups or u-shape. Decide which arrangement would best suit this class. Discuss your reasoning as a group.
