My Personal Classroom Management Plan

The teacher must know how to set the tone for the classroom and ensure that it is a productive learning environment. The teacher wants to avoid anything that would provoke them negatively as well as the students. At the same time, they must know what is needed to reinforce good behavior.

As it can be seen behaviorism is a major part of any classroom. For if one student acts out then the rest might get the idea that they can also act out in class and not receive punishment for it. It is also good to have a classroom management in place. Classroom management is also called behavior management. As it states in A Beginning Teaching Portfolio Handbook, “For these teachers, motivated students are those who do what they are told to do when they are told to do it.” (Foster,Walker,Song, pg. 99, para. 9) Which means when a

The classroom management plan created in EDEL 441 contains a variety of components that are essential to managing the classroom. The classroom management plan encompasses a classroom climate statement, a plan for building a classroom community through classroom responsibilities, a classroom diagram, and a classroom arrangement statement. Additionally, the classroom management plan contains procedures for lining up and walking in a line, cafeteria procedures and expectations, and a statement of why teaching procedures is important to the management of the classroom. Furthermore, the classroom management plan provides information regarding the importance of using a variety of instructional methods, a behavior plan using positive reinforcements,

Lexington Two is contains 18 schools (two early childhood centers, seven elementary schools, four middle schools, two high schools, one alternative education center, and two residential treatment facilities.) This district serves 8,800 students, grades CD-4 through 12. Lexington Two is comprised of students who are: 33% African-American; 11% Hispanic/Latino; 50% Caucasian; and 6% other ethnic categories. Approximately 59% of our students receive subsidized meals. The projected poverty index for 2013 is 64%. The school district employs 1,043 people. There are 603 certified staff members.

To assure that my procedures and expectations are thoroughly known, I plan on continuously practicing my classroom procedures and modeling both them and my behavioral expectations for the students. Providing them with a clear example and backing it up with extensive practice for the first few weeks of school will practically imprint this in my students’ minds. Through building positive relationships and implementing persistent and clear classroom management, I know that my students will have the opportunity to

Unfortunately, misbehavior overshadows positive and compliant behaviors. Teachers should realize that successful classroom management requires a teacher with an overt strategy to recognize, acknowledge, and reward the behaviors that he or she wants to flourish. We should understand that affirmation is the most positive behavior of all. Every student needs to feel that he or she will be accepted even when his/her behavior is not. Teachers should constantly model positive reinforcement for students by encouraging good behavior in the classroom. We should always think to give four positives with any corrective feedback given. (Jim Fay, David Funk, 1995) Positive Classroom Management is a set of proactive strategies that create a structured

Creating my future classroom for first graders I chose rules that were similar to the SMART classroom management. The rules that I will put in place will target only behavior issues, separating my expectations in the classroom separately. This will allow less confusion for young students, as well as keeping it clear and simple for students to understand the rules themselves. Rules for my class room will be listen and follow carefully the instructions of the day, raise your hand before you speak or leave your seat, shows respect to others, keep hand, feet, and objects to oneself. I want to motivate students to make good choices, for each consequence students break the will have to think about their bad choice they made and how they can do things differently to improve their behavior. Behavior continue I would have to talk to student privately advising them that bad choices are being made and if they continue this route the next level would be contacting parents for bad choices made during class time. Either by sending a note for parent to sign or by phone.

I believe that my classroom management plan will provide my students with a safe and supportive learning environment by allowing students the freedom to grow while offering support when they need help moving forward. A middle school classroom should be a nurturing place where students can come to learn without constant judgment from their peers or teachers. The teacher should create an environment that keeps children safe from physical harm as well as create a classroom culture that is supportive and caring. In order to create such a culture the teacher needs to use the correct management models such as the Positive Discipline model and the Cooperative Discipline model. With these two model in use I believe I can create such an environment.

My classroom management philosophy is evolved around the best way to facilitate knowledge to the students. All the students should have equal opportunity and access to learning within my classroom. I believe that students should have an element of fun and relaxation to make the students and teacher feel like a community. My teaching approach is authoritative/ democratic, using an instructional management plan, following an interactionist theory of teaching.

Ms. Peck the 3rd grade teacher that I interviewed mentioned to me that at her school the teachers are taught to teach appropriate behavior to their students. They are also supposed to model and practice appropriate behavior to show the students what they expect from the students. Ms. Peck mentioned to me that they are also taught to catch students exhibiting the appropriate behavior and to praise the students upon it. By praising the students on the appropriate behavior it shows students what they are supposed to be doing.

Kindergarten teachers and teachers of all grades have the job of creating a stable, efficient environment within their classrooms that is productive and comfortable for students to encourage their true academic potential In order to do so, one must create their own classroom management plan that enables them and their students to reach academic and professional goals during the school year. By developing a full classroom management plan, a teacher can strategize their year and create an efficient and effective classroom to promote the best learning possible. The purpose of the following paper is to present ones classroom management plan based on the theories of Harry and Rosemary Wong. The paper includes a personal philosophy of classroom

In reading the article, “Managing Your Classroom for Success,” I was incredibly excited to know that the article was written by Rosemary and Harry Wong. In my previous research on classroom management, I learned that Harry Wong was one of the most sought after speakers on teacher effectiveness.

Chapter five is about how you launch your management plan in the classroom. There are five tasks that are designed to help you launch your management plan. Task 1 is to summarize your classroom management and discipline plan. Task 2 focuses on making final preparations for day one. Task 3 is implementing your plan on day one. Task 4 is all about implementing your plan on days two through 20, the first four weeks. Finally, Task 5 is about preparing your students for special circumstances.

The structure of the class room and the curriculum helps the child to make his own choice and

The first day of school sets the tone for the remainder of the school year. Careful planning of classroom management is the most important factor in ensuring a successful and meaningful school year. Another important factor is the establishment of classroom rules, procedures and routines. When students know exactly what is expected from them, they are able to succeed in the classroom. There are so many unknowns that are thrown their way that having these elements cemented in place allows the students to feel safe, respected and eager to learn.
