- Maintain eye contact
- Let one another speak uninterrupted
- Raise concerns about one another’s statements in a
respectful manner
2- Let students help establish guidelines
Encourage all students to
participate in the
development of classroom
rules, since this will result
in greater buy-in than
simply telling them what
they are not supposed to
do.
3- Document rules

• Don’t let your agreed


upon guidelines go
forgotten !!
4- Don’t punish the class
• Address isolated discipline issues individually rather than punishing an
entire class, as the latter can harm your relationships with on-task students

“Do you have a question?”
other students”

“Pay attention and stop


“Do you need help
fooling around while I’m
focusing?”
talking”
5- Keep A Friendly Environment

rather than negative remarks, and greeting students with a smile
and a kind word.

and behavioral performance.

prepare ahead of time and
deliver short presentations
to share key points of the
lesson.

learn how to manage them better.

b- Who they work well with?
c- Their favorite types of lessons
d- Their favorite in-class activities
e- Which kinds of exercises help them remember key lesson
points?
10- Address undesired behavior immediately
• Don’t be hesitant to deal with students’ bad conduct, when a student
violates a written rule.

But remember to talk to the student in private!!!!!

learners, follow to curriculum requirements, and engage your students'
