Mica Auguste Mr. Alvarez Intro to education, Period 5 19 October 2017 Case study #5 In a classroom environment, there are many different interruptions and distractions. These distractions can range from people in the classroom to the problems that occur out side of the classroom but are brought inside of the classroom environment. Most of the class time is used defusing situations and giving the class instructions instead of the class actually being taught new information. In this case study…
Favorites In the Classroom Starting freshman year of high school, my biology teacher already expected the world from me. Prior to meeting me on the first day of school, he had looked at my test scores from the year before. Apparently I had one of the highest scores in the class, and my teacher concluded that I should be the brightest student. Seems logical right? Well, he paid a great deal of attention to me the first couple of months. Friendly conversation, jumping to answer my questions,…

It was my first experience in the school system and shaped my desire to become an elementary teacher.

successful when they are organized and have a plan of action that will guide them everyday of the school year. This plan is known as a Classroom Management Plan. This is the guidebook to how your classroom will run. It will have all of your procedures, your principles, rules, and a general of what will take place in your class.

The ten given tips mentioned in the video all seemed to be very effective ones to implement in the classroom if done correctly. Classroom management is crucial, and can definitely make a difference in-between a well ran room and a chaotic classroom. The first tip mentioned was beginning the year tough. I definitely believe teachers have to set the stage of what is expected and stand their ground to instill the procedures and expectations into the students, but this should also not be taken to…
Getting To Know the Classrooms Going in to observe teachers, classrooms, students, and the school as a whole is always fun for me because I always learn so much it is a great learning experience. I’ve done observations before at my previous school, but this time around of observations and field hours where serious for me because I’ve been on the border line of changing my major. I always ask how do you know this is for you? At what point did you really realize this is the job for you? After…
First, the teacher should maximize the structure in the classroom. That is to ensure that the class is not congested and that the students have free space for seating and movement. The students worked on several tasks during this video and the classroom would have been ideal for learning/work stations. Secondly, the teacher should spend some time posting, teaching, reviewing, monitoring as well as reinforcing classroom expectations. Students should know the goals and objective at the beginning…

1. Describe the students in the classroom: Ms. Parker’s afternoon Pre-Kindergarten class consisted of 15 students (9 boys and 6 girls). These students were seen to enter the classroom in a much more energetic and cheerful manner as compared to the morning Pre-K class previously observed.
