Discipline and Management
• Be clear about
Goals and Expectations.
• Be positive.
• Be consistent.
• Be an example, a role model.
• Be organized.
Procedures and Routines• A good teacher has clear procedures and
routines for: - behavior
- activities
• The teacher must be able to model, teach, and practice procedures in the class.
• Teachers should monitor the class to see that the procedures are being followed.
• Teachers reinforce and praise students who follow the procedures.
Procedures and Discipline
The Problem is NOT discipline.
Behavior problems result because:
1. The students do not know the procedures.
2. Students have not been trained to follow procedures.
Procedures and Discipline
Procedures are important because:
1. They are necessary to function successfully.
2. They allow for different activities.

PROCEDURES

DISCIPLINE
has to do with how students behave.
Procedures are a part of LIFE!
Procedures and Routines
The number one problem in the classroom
is not discipline;
it is the lack of procedures and routines.
The effective teacher
has
procedures and routines
In the classroom.
Classroom Discipline
• Discipline has to do with how students behave.
• Management has to do with procedures and these procedures govern how students go about doing their work in the classroom
Classroom Discipline
The vast majority of the behavior problems in the classroom
are caused by the failure of students
to follow procedures and routines,
which in turn are caused
by teachers who do not have
procedures and routines.
Classroom Management
• Classroom management is different because it has nothing to do with control and compliance.
• Classroom management has to do with organizing and structuring the classroom with procedures.
• Procedures teach responsibility.
Conclusion
• Behavior has to do with discipline and classroom management has to do with procedures and routines.
• Effective teachers MANAGE their classrooms with procedures and routines.
• Ineffective teachers DISCIPLINE their classrooms with threats and punishments.
Conclusion
• Learning only takes place when the students are on task and doing their work, producing the lesson outcomes the teacher expects. To do this, effective teachers manage their classrooms with procedures and routines.
• PROCEDURE: What the teacher wants done.• ROUTINE: What the students do automatically.
The first five minutes are critical
• The most essential thing for a teacher to do is to structure an assignment the second the students walk into the room.
• A well-planned lesson eliminates 90% of discipline problems.
The first five minutes are critical• Do not allow ‘FREE Time’ while you take roll.
The minute the bell rings, turn on the overhead projector to reveal a warm-up activity.
• Whatever the opening activity, its primary purpose is to engage students the minute they walk through the door and to provide the teacher an opportunity to handle attendance and other housekeeping duties.
• The opening activity also provides a jumping off point for the day’s lesson.
The First Day of School
• The first day of school is the most important day of the school year.
• That is the day you set the tone of your class for the entire academic year.
• Effective teachers know how to begin the first day of school and maximize use of class time for learning.
The First Day of School
Plan each activity for the first day of school as follows:
Greet each student at the door
Direct them toward their assigned seats (alphabetically)
Tell student to read and follow the instructions written on the board – the bell work
