3. My Big Ideas (Learning Essentials)
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
efficient routines make it easier for students` to learn and achieve more. When routines and
procedures are carefully taught, modeled, and established in the classroom, children know what is
expected of them and how to do certain things on their own. Having these predictable patterns in
place allows teachers to spend more time in meaningful instruction.

 Checking of the attendance

C. Surf the. internet or research in the library. Readand jot down some important notes
on classroom routines and procedures.
 Before establishing specific procedures or routines, it is necessary to have a
discussion with students about their importance. During this discussion, you
should be able to talk about the rationale behind various routines. When
possible, invite students to create procedures with you. This process can
nurture a sense of ownership and community in your classroom. In
establishing procedures or routines, it is important to:
 Ensure that students understand the reason for the routine.
 Clarify the procedure through modeling.
 Allow students opportunities to practice the routine through rehearsal.
 Try not to overwhelm students by teaching too many routines at once. The
process of establishing routines and procedures may take several days.
