B. Safe Caring Learning Environment
Always interact with the students by saying hi to students every morning and ask how
their night was. It is important to become engaged with student lives
Encourage positive behavior by praising them (eg. Good job, Excellent, etc.)
Create rapport with students so they feel comfortable talking about issues with the
teacher
Always be available to talk when students need it
Always provide assistance for students whether its in the classroom or not
noise to a minimum I will not have to say anything but if the noise starts to get loud I
would remind them to keep it down. This one is most likely already implemented in the
classroom so being persistent with the students will ensure a lovely environment that has
a positive atmosphere to learn in.
5. Group procedures: All group members will participate in the group projects. The
teacher using a variety of tools such as the smart board will assign groups randomly.
The instructions will be explained before moving into the groups to avoid unnecessary
time wasted. Student may be assigned roles to clear up any confusion with a students
participation within the group. Students will need to stay on task in the group.
Students in a group are always a tricky task. As a teacher I would make sure to arrange
the groups to ensure that no one is left out. This can be done is a variety of ways. Before
showing what the groups will be I will explain to the class what is to be done in the
activity. This ensures that when the students get into their groups they will get right to
work. If I put them in their groups before I explain it may take a while to get the students
quiet to explain. I would do it this way because it just ensures that every student is
included and that time is not wasted in the process. Walking around the groups and
assisting as needed will be how I enforce this procedure. Also I can assess if the students
need help when walking around instead of all the students coming up to my desk and
crowding the area. It allows for quick formative assessment in the classroom.
6. General procedures:
Homework will be handed in on time unless discussed with teacher
There will be no personal electronic devices in the classroom (exceptions for
students who need them) but can be used at break times if needed
Students who arrive late to class will come in quietly not disrupting the class and
begin to become engaged in the class
If there are any problems the students will come to the teacher to help resolve any
issue. If the issue is personal then it will be dealt with after class time. Other
arrangements will be made to accommodate any conflicts
These procedures are quiet explanatory. Homework will need to be handed in on time
unless discussed with the teacher. There will be some circumstances that a student does
not hand it in and thats when I give them time (probably at their breaks during the day)
to finish the homework. In most cases I will not give too much homework. If a student is
late to class I want them to come into the class and sit quietly not disturbing others. To
reinforce this in the classroom I will remind them when needed by either asking them to
be quiet or by giving a hand signal. Personal electronic devices will not be in the
classroom unless they need them (such as a student with a disability). If the student is
caught with a personal device they will be asked to put it in their desk or in their locker.
They can also put it somewhere in the room where they can pick it up after class. The
teacher will try to assist problems as they arise.
