Classroom Management
Philosophy
Strive to create a safe, enriching, and positive environment for my
students. I want them to be comfortable with me and each other. If my
students are engaged and everyone is kind towards one another, then I
believe that my students will be successful.
Expectations
- Come to class prepared, ready, and willing to listen
- To exhibit respects for self, others, and classroom
- To engage and participate in classroom activities
- To strive to do their best
I will convey expectations by modeling examples, holding students
responsible for their actions, posting reminders around the classroom,
by teaching expectations of appropriate behavior, and by providing
reinforcement.
Pre-School Checklist

- Review available student information
- Create a scope and sequence and basic lesson plans

environment

Deal with Individual Students and Their Differences
- Implement strategies and teach each individual in order to cater
to the unique personality and individual circumstances that
effect the students in the classroom.
Prevent Discipline Problems
- Make sure expectations are clear
- Expect, teach, and reinforce good behavior
- Reward good behaviors
Support my Discipline Program
- Visual, verbal, and tactile cues
- Find what works for individuals
- Observe students and look for antecedents and triggers.
Intervene immediately after the trigger.
- Reward good behavior
- Reactions should include a sense of humor and caring for each
child.
- One should look at situations through different perspectives.
- Walk children through the problem and have them think of a way
to prevent it from happening again.
Correct Discipline Problems
- Zero tolerance- hitting and name calling
- One could model appropriate behaviors
- Reason with the children ex. How would you feel if?
- Social stories- have student help write the story
- Direct teaching of the skill (replacement behaviors)
- Conflict resolution- have a mediator to talk through the problem.
- Class discussions
- Intervention plans- follow each students BIP and incorporate
them into the classroom.
- Actively model expected student behavior by exhibiting
appropriate behavior while at school (ideally in other public
places too)
Provide a Safe Classroom
- Have a plan in place for emergencies.

Everybody sits in his or her own space (island).


Learn proper restraint techniques to safely use in emergency
situations
Wear appropriate clothing
Do not put fragile or possibly dangerous items in the classroom
where a student could readily access them at all times ex.
Scissors, glass jars, etc.
Treat children with respect and have a clam, cool temper. This
establishes teacher control of the classroom.
Set up appropriate expectations
Follow each individuals BIP
