Discipline, classroom management, and creating community in the classroom begins the first moment a student meets a teacher. This may be the first day of class, at a basketball game, or as students pass the teacher in the hallway. Respect, in my opinion, is the beginning to every good relationship, which is exactly what teachers must develop with students in order to build an atmosphere of successful learning. An atmosphere of successful learning holds disciplinary issues to a minimum, because
Now that I have a classroom management philosophy it is time for me to reflect on my beliefs. Even though, I have not yet tested it out fully I have had a glimpse of my philosophy in action during my field experience hours. I believe that my classroom management plan will provide my student with a safe and supportive learning environment because my whole philosophy is based on influencing my students rather than controlling them. I want to create a community of caring and let my students have an
perform because I expect a reward at the end of the month. Teaching is my passion. I feel extremely satisfied with every successful lesson. As a teacher, I feel that I’ am connected to my students’ lives and I have a direct influence on them. I teach because I admire education and I want to make a difference in that domain. I want to help humanity, and teaching gives me a great opportunity to do so. I’ am passionate about educating my students, I work with them, motivate them, and inspire them to learn
begin instructing in their own classroom. An educator’s first year of teaching can be the most difficult for some teachers. It is the first time that you are out all on your own with no mentor or co-teacher. Classroom management, behavior issues, and lacking confidence can be just a few of many doubts that teachers can have throughout their first year. During my interview with Mrs. Schnohoff, she expressed her concerns with lacking confidence. She knows her classroom and she does what works for her
Legal and Ethical Implications for Classroom Management The classroom environment includes both physical and affective attributes that individually and cumulatively establish the tone or atmosphere in which teaching and learning will take place. (Tomlinson, 2003). One of the most effective methods of preventing misbehavior is through thorough planning, preparation and organization of the classroom settings and the learning environment. A well-prepared teacher tends to keep up the class rules and
Throughout my life I have observed two distinct career paths, my father’s and my mother’s. My mother completed her dental hygienists education and secured a government job in Malaysia, which she continued to hold to this day. My father’s path began similarly; like my mother, he earned a dental hygienists education in the same college as my mother. My father continued education by completing dental technician education, then started his own dental lab and became a successful dental technician. Evaluating
different leadership styles: strategic management, tactical management, and mixed management. In the strategic (“social” as I call it) management style, managers talk to their employees often and want them to be apart of the decision and planning process. The advantage of the strategic management style is that the employees are extremely motivated by the manager’s trust in their abilities. If I was a manager, I would only use the strategic management style if I knew all my employees knew how to do their
proficient in the area of reflecting. After every lesson I focus on my strengths and weaknesses in the area of planning, classroom environment, meeting the needs of my diverse learners, and classroom management. When looking at my strengths and weaknesses I write down what went well and what I may change in the future to make the lesson more successful. I have also asked both Dr. Bausman and Mrs. Loring ways to improve with some of my teaching techniques. For example, Dr. Bausman suggested the students
Since my CAC is an infant, I am doing this assignment based on a 3-year-old boy who has executive function delays. Prior to moving into my current preschool classroom, as a part-time aid, I worked with this young boy in his older toddler classroom. Therefore, I am familiar with his temperament and behavior as well as I have gotten to know his parents pretty well during my time with the center. Working with this young boy along with his family has been an exceptional experience, which I am truly grateful
A teacher must always be a manager. Even when a teacher seems to turn control over to their students, the teacher is still the manager. The first role of the classroom teacher towards the learner is to assess the behavior of the students; to develop their knowledge and enhance skills; to create a good relationship as students and teachers; and to mold their students into a distinctive character by teaching good manners and right conduct. They are also the one who implements rules and regulations
