EFFECTIVE CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT These student behaviors should be taught at the beginning of the school year: • Discipline…rules, consequences, rewards • Procedures • Routines
RULES RULES ARE INTENDED TO: • Provide a safe environment for all students • Clearly communicate your expectations
TEACH YOUR RULES! • Make your rules clear • Explain your rule • Post your rules • Communicate your rules to parents in writing • For each behavioral expectation, Explain, Write it Down, Demonstrate it, and Let Students Practice
CONSEQUENCES “If you continue to do what you are doing, you will continue to get what you are getting.” • Positive consequences are rewards that come about when people adhere to rules. • Negative consequences are penalties and punishment that come about when people break rules.
