Classroom Management and Discipline Teacher Musts

Classroom management and discipline are an integral part of creating a positive learning environment.  Learning is near impossible without a classroom that is organized and disciplined.  It is important that a teacher has a well thought out management and discipline plan.  This plan should provide a base for the classroom and should be structured around prevention, respect, modeling, and consistency.  This website will give you guidelines on how to promote management and discipline in the classroom through the following areas: visual instruction plans; the physical environment; authority and leadership; proximity and mobility; praise, promt, and leave; say, see, do teaching; calm and consistency; time management; and preferred activity time.
