I actually like to try and create house\/class rules with the class on day one, so I ask the class for rules that they’d like to abide by and always reserve one more rule that I can add at the end, just to make sure I can add an important rule I feel is missing.\u00a0 I find that if the class helps set the rules, they have buy in and tend to obey them and hold others accountable to them because they’ve helped set the rules.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would opefully have at least five rules I’d like my class to follow are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1) Respect and listen to everyone <\/strong>in class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2) Be inquisitive & ask questions, no matter what.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3) Be prepared for class<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4) Learn and have fun<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5) Work hard and create work you are proud of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I like to post the procedures, using a flip chart in the front of the class or if the class is virtual, I will e-mail them out. Additionally, if I’m teaching younger children I like to send the rules out to the parents, too. This way they have an expectation of what our rules are and can hopefully support those rules. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n d) Describe at least five procedures you will use to facilitate the smooth flow of classroom routines, especially transitions, in order to avoid the loss of valuable instructional time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I actually like to try and create house\/class rules with the class on day one, so I ask the class for rules that they’d like to abide by and always reserve one more rule that I can add at the … Continue reading
