individual teacher who’s just been hired to be able to walk in with a plan of what are you going to do when a kid misbehaves or what are you going to do for the kids who behave, and what are your expectations and how are you going to teach it to the kids, so to be able to walk in with that that first day kind of helps them cross the threshold of their classroom a bit more confident…” (www.iris.peabody.vanderbuilt, 2016) In a moderate to severe special education being prepared on the first day of school helps the flow of the classroom.

The learning material (textbooks) is placed underneath each desk so that…

One teaching style does not suit every student. Some students enjoy a flipped classroom, are visual learners, or are kinesthetic learners.

Accordingly, a flipped classroom allows students to work on…

I feel that people do get their work done that is assigned by Dr. Logue, but once they are finished it sort of seems like a free for all at times and kids don't know how to control themselves. I feel that my behavior has been good for the most part in this class. I will admit that when Dr. Logue is not here that I do get talkative at times, but I…

Many teachers tend to use games either to introduce the lesson, practice a piece of grammar, revise vocabularies, or even as energizers. Hence, the term gam-ifi-cation might be confused with the use of different games inside a classroom. Gamification, as defined by Claudia Pesce, "is the use of game elements and game design techniques in non-game context” ( Claudia Pesce, para. 2, n.d) In this article, I…

Past classroom management involved strict rules, little exploration, and rote learning. However, a progressive movement is shaping the way that classrooms are managed all around the country. Through the comparison of William Glasser, Ellen White, and Harry Wong, this paper explores the way the progressive classroom…

 N.Bennet & Blundle ( 1983) ( as cited in khine, 2001) states that, “behavior improved when learners are seated in rows”.
