IMPROVING CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
Taking into account all the work developed in Graz in Gaudí school we concentrated on:
THE QUIET ARM TECNIQUE THE AUTONOMY BLOCKS
QUIET ARM TECHNIQUE
It is a clear signal to get the attention of our student without raising our voice.
We use it when there is too much unnecessary noise in the class.
The quiet arm technique in Gaudí school
It is a very rewarding and easy technique to use.
The physical gesture helps them to speak in a lower voice.
When do we use it?It helps to evaluate the grade of attention of
our students.It is not just the teacher who starts it.
Blocks. (from ages 6 till 12)
They are used in the Netherlands for more than ten years.
AUTONOMY BLOCKS-Year 3
AUTONOMY BLOCKS –YEAR 3-Gaudí School

During 2011-2012 Gaudí School team teaching is going to try these techniques in order to
improve classroom management and the attention of our students.
