1. SIX ASPECTS OF CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT Stephanie Davis Robyn Elizabeth Ewert Ashley Freitas Tracy Turcotte David Thomas Ward Susan Jane Young

2. CONSEQUENCES

5. Classroom Management Consequences In addition to designing classroom rules and procedures, it is necessary for the teacher to recognize students' behavior by reinforcing acceptable behavior and providing negative consequences for unacceptable behavior. ** It is important not to ignore inappropriate behavior or be sidetracked by students denying, arguing, or blaming someone else for the misbehavior. Instead, listen to legitimate explanations**

8. MOTIVATION

9. Types of Motivation There are two types of student motivation: Intrinsic motivation : satisfies a student’s curiosity, the need to know and feelings of competence or growth. Extrinsic motivation : comes from outside the learner and has to do with external rewards for completing a task. The overuse of extrinsic rewards can eventually undermine the intrinsic rewards that students would gain. It is important to use extrinsic rewards minimally. Students might come to rely too heavily on what they stand to physically gain from completing a task, rather than the more important academic gains.

10. Motivation is an essential component of classroom management. Therefore, teachers should plan for motivation in the same way they plan for instruction. When teachers and parents nurture a young child’s natural curiosity and encourage exploration, they are sending the message that learning is worthwhile, fun and interesting.

13. Every student has intrinsic motivation within them, sometimes the teacher just has to find their own in order to guide their students on the path toward success.

25. CLASSROOM ROUTINES

29. A procedure becomes a routine when the student does it automatically without prompting or supervision. It is important to have very clear and concise procedures so that students are less likely to act up in frustration.

30. POSITIVE RECOGNITION

31. “ Positive reinforcement is anything that occurs after a behavior that increases the likelihood that the behaviour will reoccur.” (Special Connections) “ The results of current research indicate that an over reliance on punitive policies is not only ineffective at changing behaviour … but possibly exacerbates problems.” (Morrissey et. al)
