  • Let's talk about one classroom management secret for new teachers!
    New teacher tips for classroom management can reduce stress!
    Classroom management causes many teachers (both new to the profession and veterans) frustration and stress. Classroom management strategies are difficult to discuss because there are so many variables. From the geographic location to the school's climate and attitude about classroom management, it can take a teacher years to perfect a single strategy. Let's be honest; if there were one perfect strategy, everyone would already be using it. Instead, it is up to the individual teacher to decide which techniques work best for him or her. In this vlog by The Teacher's Playbook, you will learn one classroom management strategy I have been using for years in my upper elementary classroom. I hope this helps you develop a system that works for you. What is the classroom management secret? It's all about positive peer pressure. Using varying forms of praise, I can create a classroom environment where students feel safe and included.
    Once students feel safe, included, and valued, they want their peers to behave appropriately, so the respectful tone of the classroom is maintained. Watch the video to find out more.
    Hello Teachers! My name is Melanie Howell, and I have been a classroom teacher for more than 20 years. The majority of my teaching years have been in fifth grade. I love getting up and going to school because no two days are ever the same. I love pouring myself into the lives of my students, AND I love learning something new every day. Teaching allows me to be a servant and a leader. It is all about making a difference in the life of a child.

    I think what she says is genius. The popular kid is most often the rebellious one and the voice of dissension. Not the people pleaser or the compliant. If you can divert his or her personality strengths to helping or managing the little ones (or whoever) in a constructive way then JOB DONE! And seriously no need to apologise. It’s just psychology and positive at that, what else you going to be spending your day saying , “NO, don’t do that” etc etc. How constructive is that? xxx

    I subbed for a history class and decided to bring an artifact from World War II. I told the class if they were good then I would show them the item from WWII. Overall they did great but when it came to show them the WWII item the whole class was quite when I was talking about it. You could hear a pin drop. This experience taught me that kids will pay attention when they find something interesting.

    Absolutely nailed it. 👏 It's obvious you get it. The popular kid thing is not really unfairly "pumping them up" like some mentioned. It's working the power dynamic in a nuanced and complex way. You're not saying to give artificial praise, but to win the allies you will need in the bigger picture. The popular kids will use their social capital one way or the other, or maybe not at all. Isn't it better to make sure they use that social capital in maintaining a positive environment and having allies in building a classroom culture. Yes.

    This makes perfect sense. We have to have the engagement of the child at the top of the hierarchy in order for the natural order to filter down. Sever that relationship and you’re no longer at the top of the hierarchy and are instead fighting for dominance.

    Teaching is never easy, but it is far easier to work on engaging lesson plans than it is to deal with 30+ kids who aren't engaged by what is on offer in the classroom. Great teachers are usually pretty average when it comes to behavior management strategies because they hardly ever need them.

      @@Vokal_StimmZ The one thing I have always been certain of in teaching is that a staffroom full of university graduates should not be outsmarted by teenagers. When that happens you know something has gone horribly wrong. Sometimes that happens when the teachers with the greatest power in the school pander to the students and parents and force others to do likewise.

Don't scold anyone just gaze them if they are doing something wrong. Say it in a very calm mood "Oh my kid you should not do it"..Perhaps it will work

      It is tough to find the balance between the two sides of this coin: 1. the kid pushing your limits the most is probably the one you need to invest the most time in, and 2. you cannot save everyone. One place I could always go for help is the SPED teachers. Describe the behavior to them, and they will be able to give you some concrete strategies. I think SPED teachers get more training in how to figure out what is the root cause of the behavior. Good luck!!

    Usually these type of kids show this type of behaviour because their parents are either abusive to their child or too busy with themselves rather then noticing their child needs their attention.

      My students are between 10 and 13 years old. With older teens, I believe that the teacher has to make a special effort to get to know the most difficult kids to teach. Only when you really get to know them can you win their respect. Once you have their respect, they will trust you enough to learn from you. Good luck!

    It doesn't matter what I do, students are rude, disrespectful and defiant. It would not matter how engaging my lesson is, the students come to school with the intention to do nothing with nothing; no books, laptops, not even a pen.

      I do not doubt for a minute that is true. I realize that I am fortunate to teach at a school where most families are very supportive and value education. I wish you the very best as you try and figure out what works best for you.

    I hate that the school system has conditioned the teachers to try to label small children who are in the social and emotional development stage in their life. Give them a diagnosis and drugs to make the teachers life easier 🤨 often the advanced bored kids get the crap end of the stick and it’s sad

    Hello,
    I am a teacher in France with children from 9 to 10 years old. I have 5 students who insult, fight and nothing change. The behavioral systems of dojo style do not work. They do not work any more. In addition it makes me tired of always putting points as if I gave a dog some sugars when he did a few things well.
    I want the insults and the fights to stop. I tried the meditation except that the 5 difficult students scream, sing, ....
    Do you have any ideas ?

    • @TeachersPlaybook
      @TeachersPlaybook  5 лет назад +1

      I have found that asking a special education teacher for ideas is a great place to start. They often have strategies to manage behavior that I have not considered. Another approach is to consult your school counselor. Ask him or her to come in and observe the student behavior in your class. This could lead to some new ideas, and you might find out that a few of the children have had this problem in previous school years. Students who are "chronic offenders" get a private talk in the hall with me about behavior expectations. My final suggestion is my last resort. I let the entire class know that I am paid to teach, and anyone who prevents me from doing my job will be removed from the room. Only do this if you are willing to follow through with the threat. Give admin the heads up about the situation. I have found that I only have to have a student removed once. The others will discover that they do not really want to be in trouble and behave in a much more respectful way. I wish you the best of luck.

    I am sorry but I disagree with you on pumping up the popular kid theory. I have found that many times the popular kids are the instigators. They know they are the boss and they try to misuse that power and giving them more attention will just reinforce that behavior

    • @stephenwalder5888
      @stephenwalder5888 3 года назад +3

      Actually, the teacher is the boss, that’s not up for argument. I think then if the popular kid ‘instigates’ then he/she is clearly undermining your leadership. It would therefore take a consistent and subtle one to one to begin to counter this. Always maintaining that you want the very best for them.

      I also agree, and argue that students shouldn’t be used as a tool in your classroom management strategy. Students are there to learn not supervise or tutor.

      I understand “using” a student who others will follow. Building relationships with students will set a tone. However, I’ve also had this type of approach backfire too. Each teacher has to use methods that fit their style and personality.
