How are the following classroom management tasks
accomplished? (some may not apply)
·
Students enter room
o
In waves, slowly, several students come in late
·
Students find seats
o
Slowly, are up walking around
·
Students focus on academics
o
Takes decent amount of time for students to
settle in, about 5 min
·
Class begins
o
Although students are in their seats, teacher
has to expend a lot of energy to make sure students are listening and following
along
·
Attendance is taken
o
Teacher does not do this, may be done by teacher
assistant
·
Papers distributed
o
Quickly done, instruction is given while this is
done, often times teacher will have students pass papers out – good way of
getting the hyper active kids out of their seats to give them a change to
expend some energy
·
Papers collected
o
Done orderly
·
Absent students brought up to speed
o
Very well done, has material already set aside
for these students and catches them up while other students are working, this
does not take away from instruction time
·
Late arriving students brought up to speed
o
This is done very well also. Also does not take
away from instruction. Finds a way to do this that is an effective reiteration
for the whole class
·
Other administrative paperwork accomplished
o
Done right at the beginning of class, done
quickly but makes sure that everyone has heard and understands announcements –
willing to answer questions
·
Student success is recognized
o
Most certainly so
·
Student misbehavior corrected
o
For the most part…there are two students
however, that are constantly talking and being insubordinate. They are
distracting to classmates. It seems that the proper way of handling these
students has not been figured out yet, it is being worked on
·
Class quieted if necessary
o
Done so, but sometimes ineffective and does not
last for long
·
Homework assigned to students
o
Yes, homework is posted on the board, out loud,
and published on 3 different websites
·
Students dismissed from room
o
They need to complete an “exit ticket”
assignment before they can leave…this normally proves that they comprehended
the lesson
·
Students leave room
o
Don’t leave until dismissed and given permission
There may be some evidence of school-wide management as
well. Did you hear announcements, watch students enter or leave for the day, or
notice students being reassigned to different areas during the day?
My first day,
the vice principal was called in to deal with the misbehaved students that I
mentioned before. He spoke to one of them in the hallway and they listened and
obliged to what he had to say to them.
