  5. BEING PRO-ACTIVE • To plan and prepare the organization of the classroom is as important as designing a high-quality lesson. • To create and maintain a positive learning environment. • To foster a cooperative classroom culture.

  6. “Components of the organizational plan of a classroom include room arrangement, discipline, the creation of routines and a plan to teach students how their learning environment is organized” (J.H. Stronge 2002; “Qualities of effective teachers”.- ASCD, USA).

  7. About the classroom: • Use space and furniture organization to encourage attention. Be sure that the classroom is a comfortable place (lights, ventilation, places to store materials, etc.) • Put classroom material where kids are able to use it and teach them to use it in a responsible way. • Bear in mind you can profit using other available spaces in school.

  8. Create an environment in which kids are surrounded by language. • Visuals are an important key to help remind them of content (graphics, pictures, graphs, slides, video segments, bulletin board displays, etc.). • Display children’s work and provide written posters, labels, etc.

About planning: • Be aware of diversity when planning the lessons. • Keep high expectations for your class – be a good observer. • Establish organizational routines (predictable schedule). • Manage classroom procedures to facilitate smooth transitions and continuity of momentum throughout the day.

  10. Try to find a balance between variety and challenge in student activities. • Create a communicative setting. • Take into account all available resources when planning. Remember to seize all the resources you have at your school and at the resource center. • Overplan – always have something up your sleeve

  11. About our work with the children: • Be a good observer. • Create context for meaningful communication and withclear purposes. • Establish rules - be clear. - be positive. - be consistent. • Assign tasks and share responsabilities.

  14. Clap out a pattern, and students clap it back to you. • Start singing a song they all know...they join right in, and when the song is done, they are all "with you!" • Use a silent signal. (raise your hand, touch your nose, put your hand on your head).

  15. Teacher Says ==>Then students call back If you don’t climb the mountain...==>You can’t see the view Doing your best... ==>Means you never stop trying When you believe in yourself...==>Anything is possible! Let your efforts... ==>Rise above your excuses A mistake is a chance...==>To try harder Every choice you make counts... ==>Make choices you can count on! Be satisfied...==>With nothing but your best!
