1 thought on “Classroom Management”
Love it.
I am learning something big this year, my 9th in the classroom: I finally understand that I don’t need to manage each class the same way, that each group has a different vibe and needs a different level of firmness or a different style of incentive. Period 1 likes when I am a bit sassy, but students in period 2 respond very poorly if I push back on them in the same way. Period 2 needs a countdown to quiet, they take the full ten seconds to transition but they do it. Period 7 will do the bell ringer in absolute silence and period 5 will be extremely loud during the bell ringer because they are all talking about it together. This is the first year where I haven’t labeled one of my classes as my “good” class and other as my “bad” class…I can see that they truly are all good, just very different!
