Effective Classroom-Management
and Positive Teaching
Classroom Climate
Meeting Mutual Needs
Creates a good partnership between the teacher and the student
Students and their classmates should recognize that they work together with the teacher in a team
Hanging counter-Productive Feelings
The feelings of teachers are so important for their daily work because a teacher´s attitude is very important in the classroom
When we have more control over the internal obstacles, we can often find better ways to cope with the external ones
Ciaccio, 2004
“Thoughts help control feelings. Therefore, if you change your thinking, the state of your feelings may be altered”
To develop empathy (walk in another's shoes)
Understand parents situation, "They don´t need criticism, they need help with their children."
Ciaccio, 2002

Teachers must have an in-depth understanding of the subjects that they teach
Allows students to carry out their maximum potential and develop appropriate behavior patterns
Teachers also must have an understanding of their students' interests and styles of learning
Teacher does to organize students, space, time, and materials so that students´ learning can take place
To provide students with more opportunities to learn
Effective classroom management and positive classroom climate construction are essential goals for all teachers
Aspects of classroom management
Handling their responses
Speaking to children
Arranging the chairs
Decorating the room
Creating the setting
Putting routines in place
Develop and communicate the rules
Wiseman and Hunt (2008), four processes of discipline that an act of punishment cannot do
Shows students what they should have do to.
Gives students as much ownership of the problem as they are able to handle.
Gives students options for solving the problem.
Leaves students with their dignity intact.
Learning and Motivation
Anxiety
Cognitive Side
When one worries and has negative thoughts, such as thinking about how bad it would be to fail and worrying that this is going to happen
Affective Side
When one can experience physiological and emotional reactions such as sweaty palms, upset stomach, racing heartbeat or fear
Wiseman & Hunt, 2008
The reason for a student to lose focus, become irritable or act out, withdraw and not try, be physically ill, or perform poorly in school with the resulting poor performance
Teachers must understand students and their various learning and personal needs and characteristics. All is different.
Understand the individual level of student confidence to complete a given task
Learning Goals
Influences the amount of motivation that students have to reach them
Specific goals provide a clear standard for judging performance and moderate difficulty provides a challenge
Memorable Teaching and Learning
Give students short breaks throughout a lecture to review their notes and ask questions.
Students' questions can also give the lecturer an opportunity to assess student understanding and adjust the remaining part of the lecture if needed.
The most basic and direct ways to attract and keep students' interest: The instructor expressiveness:-
The use of vocal variation
Facial Expression
Movement
Gesture
Active Learning
Create a dynamic educational environment that affords students the opportunity to practice every concept that they are learning
Utilize instructional strategies that engage students repeatedly throughout the entire lesson
Mujis & Reynolds (2011), Effective teachers use higher-level questions
The teacher needs to give pupils clear guidelines on what the discussion is about.
It is very important to summarize and review during and towards the end of lesson
Feedback and Praise
Benefit
Help in keeping pupils on track
Minimize misunderstanding and signal areas of further explanation
Enable students to have higher achievement
Wiseman & Hunt, 2008, p.147
aimed at constructively correcting errors made during learning positively affects student performance and attitude
The most effective feedback provides constructive information, praise and encouragement which are immediate and specific
Classroom Management
Clear Rules
well-defined in terms of dos and don´ts and when they exactly know the rights and wrongs.
rules are ambiguous and inconsistent; they need to know what is acceptable and not acceptable behavior
Handling Troubles
Deal the disturbances without interrupting the learning environment
Principles of early intervention de-escalating
Walk around at regular intervals in the class to observe the children's behaviour
Communicate you are watching the students' learning behavior and progress
Classroom Expectations
Wiseman and Hunt (2008) write that there are three important questions to teach successfully:
Who are your students?
What do we want them to learn?
What do we want them to do when they don´t learn to learn?
Teaching them to be realistic can help to emphasize that it is quite a negative attitude to expect that learning must always be enjoyable.
Handling Mistakes
Errors are a natural part of the learning process.
Hattie (2012. p.26)
It is okay to make mistakes, because mistakes are the essence of learning
Expert teachers create a classroom climate that welcome admission of errors
Develops a climate of trust (learning is cool) between teacher and student, and between student and student.
The Teacher as a Model
When teachers present a topic with enthusiasm, suggesting that it
is interesting, important, or worthwhile, students are likely to adopt this same attitude.
Reflection can help teachers to recognize their thinking and can help to recognize always the same mistakes
The Teacher as a Motivator
The teacher should teach them how to learn, and do so in a manner that is relevant, meaningful and memorable.
Leblanc, 1998
Caring for your craft, having a passion for it, and conveying that passion to everyone (students)
A good teacher works the room and every student in it
Metaphor
Teachers are conductors and the class is their orchestra
All students play different instruments and at varying proficiencies
A teacher´s job is to develop skills and make these instruments come to life as a coherent whole to make music.
Wiseman & Hunt, 2008
Humor is also very important. The teacher should be self-deprecating and not take him- or herself too seriously.
Effective Classroom Behaviour Management
To help students read, write and calculate.Also, to have a comfortable atmosphere
Behavior changes as a result of its consequences
Behaviours are also influenced by classroom contexts
Learning involves changes in behavior
Summary
Teachers do need knowledge to teach successfully in different areas
The praise is most effective when it is sincere and natural
To react positively to wrong answers is a way to teach
positively
The relationship between students and their parents is necessary
Students like when the teacher uses their names
A positive classroom climate is a main reason that the children like to go into the school to learn
