MY PERFORMANCE (How I shall be rated?)
These are the backbone
of daily classroom life.
They facilitate teaching
and learning. Routines do
not just make your life
easier, they save valuable
classroom time. What’s
more important is effi-
cient routines make it eas-
ier for students to learn
and achieve more. When
routines and procedures
are carefully taught, mod-
eled and established in
the classroom, children
know what is expected of
them and how to do cer-
tain things on their own.
Having these predictable
patterns in place allows
teachers to spend more
time in meaningful in-
struction.
