Classroom Management

Strategies and Techniques

ANNALIN D.
TUIBEO
Master Teacher I
1. Model ideal
behavior: Demonstrate
behavior you want to see by
holding mock conversations
and interactions with
another teacher in front of
your students.
2. Let students help establish
guidelines:
Ask students what they think is
and isn’t acceptable behavior,
encouraging them to suggest
rules for the academic year.
3. Document rules:
Ensure your guidelines aren’t
forgotten by writing them down
and distributing them as a list for
students to keep and reference.
4. Avoid punishing the class:
Address isolated behavior issues
instead of punishing the
entire class, so as to avoid hurting
your relationships with on-task
students.
5. Encourage initiative: Promote
growth mindset by allowing
students to work ahead in certain
units, delivering brief
presentations to reinforce your
lesson material.
6. Offer praise:
Recognize hard work by openly
congratulating students,
encouraging ideal
behavior and inspiring the
class.
7. Use non-verbal communication:
Complement words with actions
and visual aids to
improve content delivery, helping
students focus and process lessons.
8. Hold parties:
Throw an occasional
classroom party to
acknowledge students’ hard
work, motivating them to
keep it up.
9. Give tangible rewards:
Reward specific students at the
end of each lesson, in front of the
class, as another motivational and
behavior-reinforcement technique.
10.Make positive letters and
phone calls:
Make positive phone calls and send
complimentary letters home, possibly
encouraging parents to further involve
themselves
in their children’s learning.
11. Build excitement for
content:
Start lessons by previewing
particularly-exciting parts,
hooking student interest from
the get-go.
12. Offer different types of free
study time: Provide different
activities during free study time --
such as group note-taking -- to
help students who can’t process
content in silence.
13.Write group contracts: Help
student group work run smoothly
by writing contracts that contain
clear guidelines, asking each group
member to sign a copy.
14. Assign open-ended projects:
Encourage students to tackle open-
ended projects to allow them to
demonstrate knowledge in ways
that suit and appeal to them.
15. Give only two marks for informal
assessments:
Consider avoiding standard marks on
informal and formative assessments,
simply stating if a student did or
didn’t meet expectations. If they
didn’t, give them a task to improve
competency.
16. Use EdTech that adjusts to
each student:
Give students who struggle to
process content opportunities to
use adaptive learning technology,
such as Prodigy.
17. Interview students:
Interview students who aren’t
academically engaged or
displaying prosocial behavior to
get insights about how to better
manage them.
18. Address bad behavior quickly:
Don’t hesitate when you must
address bad behavior, as acting
sooner rather than later will
ensure that negative feelings
don’t fester.
19. Consider peer teaching: Use
peer teaching activities -- such as
paired reading -- if you
feel your top performers can help
engage and educate disruptive and
struggling students.
20. Gamify personal learning
plans:
Motivate students on personal learning
plans by gamifying those plans,
through tactics such as awarding XP
(experience points) throughout a unit
to quantify skill mastery.
