FIELD STUDY 2 Learning Episode 8 (ESTABLISHING MY OWN

CLASSROOM ROUTINES AND PROCEDURES IN A

To have a meaningful and successful accomplishment in

this FS episode, be sure to read through the whole episode before participating and assisting in your FS 2 Resource Teacher’s
class. Note all the information you will need and tasks you will need to do before working on this episode.

Target Your Intended Learning Outcomes

At the end of this Learning Episode, I must be able to:

 establish my classroom routines and procedures before during and after classes in a face-to-face or in remote learning.
 explain then classroom routines (what to do, how to do it, when to do it, and why dose need to be done).
 reflect on the basic questions when my building classroom routines and procedures in the classroom and in remote
learning.
 list down some possible topics for action research on classroom routines and procedures.
 use professional reflections and learning to improve practice.

Clarify Your Task

Establishing My Own Classroom Routines and Procedures

(Face-to-Face or Remote Learning)

Routines are the backbone of daily classroom life. They facilitate teaching and learning. Routines don’t just make the life
of the teacher easier. They save valuable classroom time. Efficient routines make it easier for the students to learn and achieve
more.

Establishing routines early in the school year enables you to run your daily activities run smoothly; ensures that you
manage time effectively; helps you maintain order in the classroom; makes you more focused in teaching because you spend less
time in giving directions/instructions; and enables you to explain to the learners what are expected of them.

Classroom routines set the foundation to a meaningful school year with teachers and students whether in the classroom or
remotely. To teach classroom routines remotely, it is best to record videos and to post this in the learning management system so
students may watch them over and over again to better retention and for families to view them so they can assist their children
when needed.

Students can take an active role in establishing classroom routines. They can brainstorm on ideas which they will not most
likely do and follow. Rouitnes are important especially when done in remote learning so that there will be less destructions both
for synchronous and asynchronous participation.

 Participate and Assist

To ensure that I can carry out/perform my tasks efficiently and effectively in participating and assisting my cooperating
teacher in establishing routines and procedures, in a classroom or in remote learning.

1. How will I gain student attention in the classroom/remote learning?

2. What are the routines and procedures that I need to establish before, during and after my classes whether on a face-to-
face or remote learning?
3. What verbal and non-verbal communication will I use to signal that students need help/attention in the classroom/remote
learning?
4. How must students get/secure the needed work materials and books and others in the classroom/remote learning?
5. How will students transition to group work other cooperative activities in the classroom/remote learning?
6. What procedures must be followed by students who need to attend personal necessities in the classroom/online classes?
7. What rules must be set for students who finish tasks early/ and for those who cannot complete work on time?
8. What procedures must be observed for tardiness/ early dismissals?
9. What procedures must be done when submitting homework/ performance tasks in the classroom/remote learning?
10. What procedures must be employed in movements into and out of the classroom/remote learning?

Having these guide questions in mind, consult your Resource Teacher on the possible assistance or participation that you
can do to help her/him in doing the classroom routines. Complete the matrix for the routines that you can employ before,
during and after classes in the classroom/remote learning to ensure order and discipline in your classes. List down the
problems which you have encountered while implementing these routines.

 What was the feedback of your Resource Teacher on your classroom routines and procedures?
 What there a change in the classroom environment/ teaching-learning process after you have implemented your
classroom routines and procedures?
 What was the feedback of your Resource Teacher on your classroom routines and procedures?

ANALYZE
