Classroom Management

Introduction:

Again and again, teachers have been reported to judge student

misbehavior and classroom discipline to be among the most difficult

and disturbing aspects of the teaching experience as well as a major

factor contributing to teacher discontent.

Classroom management is still a thorny issue for teachers. Nearly half

of new teachers report that they feel “not at all prepared” or “only

somewhat prepared” to handle disruptive students,

1) What classroom misbehavior did you see in your last school?

2) Who causes misbehavior?

3) What is it about pupils that makes them misbehave?

4)What do they need to do to stop misbehaving?

Significance

Classroom management is how the teacher delivers the curriculum, as

well as the environment in which students will learn. There must be a

kind of rapport between me and my learners.

I must treat my learners in the same way I treat my own sons and

daughters. I must show my fatherly love to my learners before I present

my lessons. Love paves the way to perfect learning.

Teaching and Teacher research addressing classroom discipline

suggests that there are a number of disciplines to be more common in

classes containing greater numbers of misbehaving students.
