After reading the article, "What does it mean to be a good teacher" by Tracey Garrett, I believe that the most important behavior of an effective teacher is the ability to establish order without being overly rigid.

The learning environments that lacked structured included very little successful teaching days.…

This includes continuously learning new knowledge, creating a positive learning environment, disciplinging consistently, and being able to make the students feel valued with a positive attitude towards the students’ success.

I believe a teacher’s responsibility at this level is to be a good role-model and to keep a positive attitude. At the same time, there is no such thing as excellent teaching. I believe perfection is not always achievable…

Class discussions and partner share will be a teaching strategies used in our class. It will be important that we teach students what it takes to be an effective lesson partner. Students will be instructed on how to look at their partner, lean towards them, allow them to share prior to add to the discussion and they will know that everyone will be required to participate. With these strategies in place, students will become much more effective partners.
