Classroom management

Placeholder photograph of a seminar room.

The work starts from routines that protect learning time: entries, instructions, transitions, and the way a teacher responds when a lesson slips. Participants write the routine they will actually use, in words they would say aloud. The page does not offer a discipline system as a product, and it does not describe a past school contract.

Objectives

  • Write routines that can be taught, not only enforced.
  • Shorten instructions.
  • Plan a respectful response to disruption.

Learning outcomes

  • Three spoken routines.
  • A revised instruction.
  • A private note on what to stop doing.

Topics

  • Routines
  • Instructions
  • Attention
  • Repair
