Define Classroom Management

• Classroom management consists of the practices
  and procedures a teacher uses to maintain the
  environment in which instruction and learning can
  take place.
• People expect procedures for everything they do
  in life going to the movies, waiting in line to
  be served at a restaurant, using guidelines in
  the work place, etc. Teaching children the
  procedures they need to follow in class gives
  them life skills and makes teaching less
  stressful.

5

• When procedures are in place, the teacher can
  focus on teaching. Students know automatically
  what needs to be done. They know when and how to
  do it because you have taught them until they get
  it right.
• Classroom management begins before the first day
  of school.
• -Wong Wong

6
The Difference Between Classroom Management
and Discipline

• Classroom management is NOT discipline they are
  not synonymous terms.

7

• DISCIPLINE
• Discipline is all about how students behave.
• Rules are used to control how students behave.
• Discipline plans have rules.
• CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
• Management deals with how students do their work.
• Procedures are used to ensure students are
  productive and successful.
• Classroom management plans have procedures

8

• More than 80 of behavior problems in the
• classroom have nothing to do with discipline.
  
• They are related to classrooms that lack
• procedures and routines.
• -Wong Wong

9
Ineffective vs Effective Teachers

• Ineffective teachers discipline their students
  to
• control their every action.
• Effective teachers teach their students how to
  be
• responsible for appropriate procedures.

10

• The most effective teachers make everyone
• comfortable, yet have total control of the
• classroom.
• Teachers achieve this when they have planned for
  how the classroom should be managed for student
  learning and achievement.
•   -Wong Wong
