Classroom Management Through Engaging Instructions Engaging students in the classroom is an ongoing task. What works for some students may not work for others. What works in the morning, may not work in the afternoon. As teachers, we have to constantly assess the mood of our students and use appropriate classroom management strategies which help create a conducive learning atmosphere. One of the first questions my students ask me upon entering the class is “What are we going to do now?”This tells me two things: they are eager to know what is in store for them, and they are more at ease knowing what they will be doing, as opposed to not knowing, Writing the learning objectives on the board will help my students understand what they are learning and why they are learning it. As Doyle, W. (1983) stresses, making the objective clear from the outset will help students remain engaged in their tasks. (p.250). http://blog.simplek1...
This blog is a tribute to my parents who are life long-learners and my students whose identity and world views I am responsible for nurturing in the span of 365 days.
