CT’s classroom management
March 16, 2010
My CT is wonderful and I plan on taking some of her behavior management practices with me into my own classroom. There is a clear system of what to do when a child is acting out. First there is a warning, then they have to write their name on the board and then there is a system of checks next to the name and consequences. I like this because it is nothing that the teacher has to keep up with like stars or items in a jar. Although it is a lot to swallow, I think that at this age it is good for the students to have to stand up in front of the class and write their name. I have at times thought it to be too harsh but it certainly deters a lot of the kids. I want to be sure that there is no vague room left in my behavior management plan and I feel that that is the case in my CT’s classroom.
