What would we as teachers like to expect from our students in the classroom?
![Page 4: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Classroom management can raise a number of concerns….
![Page 5: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Worries…?
![Page 6: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
And issues with teaching methodology…
![Page 7: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
We need to consider our objectives and how to achieve them…
![Page 8: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Rate yourself as a classroom manager!• How would you rate yourself at… • 1.1 Organizing classroom space (e.g., seating, resources, technology, decoration) to ensure safety, maximize • learning, and meet your overall goals and objectives? • Novice (1) Developing (2) Proficient (3) Expert (4) NA • • 1.2 Keeping the flow of activities in the classroom moving smoothly? • Novice (1) Developing (2) Proficient (3) Expert (4) NA • • 1.3 Establishing a manageable set of classroom rules and procedures and communicating with students • about them regularly (e.g., posting them, modeling them, explaining the rationale behind them, • discussing their applications in the classroom, and refining them as needed)? • Novice (1) Developing (2) Proficient (3) Expert (4) NA • • 1.4 Providing clear directions for classroom tasks using a variety of modalities (e.g., verbal, visual, physical • demonstration) and checking to make sure students understand their roles and responsibilities? • Novice (1) Developing (2) Proficient (3) Expert (4) NA • • 1.5 Developing an effective plan for managing student behavior that includes positive consequences, • negative consequences, and an appropriate level of home involvement? • Novice (1) Developing (2) Proficient (3) Expert (4) NA • • 1.6 Managing non-instructional duties (e.g., taking attendance, distributing materials and take-home • notices, lunch counts) with minimal disruption to classroom learning? • Novice (1) Developing (2) Proficient (3) Expert (4) NA • • 1.7 Working effectively with other adults in the classroom (e.g., co-teachers, paraprofessionals, aides, • student teachers)? • Novice (1) Developing (2) Proficient (3) Expert (4) NA

What doesn’t work?
![Page 10: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What happens if you…..
• Raise your voice too much• Send the students out of the classroom• Discipline a student in front of the other students
• Get really angry
![Page 11: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A little bit of psychology…• Why do you think children might misbehave?
•Attention•Power•Revenge•Display of inadequacy
![Page 12: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The answers lie with….• Accepting that some behaviours are age appropriate…
• Helping the child to succeed and create activities that he can succeed at
• Building self esteem. Often all the child hears are the sentences beginning with “No!” and “Don’t!” so it is very important to make the child feel good about himself
• Teaching that “on task” behavior gets immediate positive feedback such as praise
![Page 13: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
In the ESL classroom …what are other issues with managing the students?
![Page 14: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
What’s the solution?
•To pre-empt problems (solve issues before they start) by
thinking of what to do in advance
![Page 15: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Where should we begin?
![Page 16: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What’s the problem?
• Power imbalance..the students are in control! • Take control as the person in charge!• Classroom entry…meet and greet. Why?• Make some positive (non-confrontational) statements about what the students are doing right (praise) along with chatting with them
• Let’s think of examples of these statements…
![Page 17: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The students are now calm…what next?
![Page 18: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Aim?• To get the students seated into the classroom and working
as quickly as possible• Start by getting attention of the entire group• Be clear with your instructions…• Which of these is the clearest instruction?• 1. “Please be quiet!”• 2. “Line up against the wall facing me and no talking
please”• 3. Line up now please! Keep the noise down!”
![Page 19: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What else?• Where to start?• Get the students who have done as you have asked to
come to the beginning of the line• Give praise to these students (“good job on lining up and
not talking!” or “thank you for listening!” )• These students will enter the room first• As the students enter what could you say to them?*• What action could you take if they are not listening to
you?
![Page 20: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Think for a moment about why this aspect of classroom management may work?
![Page 21: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Plan….• Be ready! Have a seating plan on the wall (can be a class
plan like this)
• Or can be name places (smaller children can write and illustrate their own)
• Remember ROUTINES! Be as consistent as you can be EVERY lesson

Classroom Layout• How can this affect management?• What can we do to change the layout in a positive way?
![Page 23: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Where shall I sit?• Look at the cards and decide where you would place
these students….
![Page 24: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Cards for seating activity B Keeps

quick finisher
F needs lots of support
L argues with whoever is
sitting next to her
W fights with P R cannot work alone
T picks on A A needs some support with
writing
M has special needs (dyslexia)
C has ADHD (attention issues)
K is a model student
J is a loud and aggressive boy
S is quiet and hardworking

What next?• As they sit down, they should have the correct
equipment…text book, note book and something to write with
• Now they have sat down, they need to be able to start an activity almost immediately
• Activity can be called a “settling starter activity” (Rob Plevin)
• Should be something that the children can begin without the teacher’s help
• Let’s think of examples in pairs…
![Page 26: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Examples of teacher-free starter board activities
•Five anagram words on the board eg; cilpen (pencil etc)•Write the middle or end of 5 known words i.e. enci (pencil)•Write 5 words with a letter missing each. •On a known theme (eg; Classroom objects) write the first letter of 5 different objects to complete.•5 words each with one deliberate mistake in the spelling.•Odd one out i.e pencil eraser cup notebook•They have one minute to write as many clothes as possible, colours, sports,fruit,veg, countries, pets, rooms, hobbies, furniture.•They have one minute to write as many words as they can beginning with….•Writesixorsevenwordstogetherwithoutabreak

Keep Interest• “If students are introduced to topics that interest them,
they’re more likely to be motivated!” • But…of couse we are not all interested in the same topic!• However, with each topic we should try to engage as
many students as possible.• Old topics need to be “revitalized!”

Supporting and motivating• What can we do to support the students when the
language output is low in relation to the input?

Some tips for managing…
•PHYSICAL… Move around the classroom
• INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION..focus on particular students
•SECRET SIGN as a strategy to redirect
•USE NON VERBAL CUES

Too loud/too much talking• Pair work/groups of three• All participants have a role• Groups can be regularly rearranged as necessary so that
students can experience more/less confident peers• Have the students sit close (don’t have to raise their
voices)• Give the students a time limit and use a timer to signal
that time is nearly up

Typical learner problems in teacher centred classroom
She is using too many
words!
I got lost after the first two sentences….
Why can’t she just explain the
directions step by step without saying
a wholebunch of other
words?
How am I going to learn
to say that word myself if
only she repeats it and
she doesn’t ask me to repeat
it?
![Page 43: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Student centred….• Much better for large classes• If you want to encourage student talk in a crowded class,
the best way to do this is pair/group work • The students are close to each other in groups and the
teacher can walk around and listen • Groups and pairs can be mixed…composed of weak and
strong students• Pairs can be good for practice/when students need to feel
less inhibited and needs to “talk” more• But, the larger the group, the less talking time there is for
each student…
![Page 44: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Add student-centered activities• Interact high and low patience activities• Games and competitions to keep students engaged and
to encourage participation• Compare and contrast examples of student and teacher
centred activities
![Page 45: CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT 2014. What might classroom management mean?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56649d0d5503460f949e29f5/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Case Studies….• Look at the cards that have been given to you• Decide how you could manage the issue in your
classroom
