BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT TIPS OF THE WEEK

Behavior Management Tips Volume 19

 

Purchase a large piece of laminate from a local hardware store, cut into 12 x 12 inch pieces, and give each student a piece to keep at his or her desk. As you teach on a concept, have students write an answer or an example on the board and hold it up. This method holds students' attention, and keeps everyone involved in the teaching/learning time.

On a classroom bulletin board, create a racetrack with several pit stops. Whenever the class gets a compliment from the principal, a parent, an assistant, or another teacher, advance the racecar one space. If the group misbehaves, move back the racecar to the nearest pit stop. When the car reaches the finish line, provide a class reward.

When you want to get students' attention, say in a loud voice: "One, two, three. Eyes on me!" Teach them to respond in unison, "One, two. Eyes on you!"
