Creating My Classroom Learning Management Plan

A classroom management plan is a plan that a teacher designs that sets the expectations for
every student. The purpose of a classroom management plan is to make the students
accountable for their actions. Effective classroom management increases students’ success,
enhances students’ academic skills and competencies and promotes social and emotional
development.
The teaching-learning process may be implemented in various modalities. Teachers must
bear in mind that alternatives and other options may be considered in designing the classroom
management plan.
A good learning environment produces highly engaged students who learn more, do more
and work more. Teachers likewise become more creative and productive in their work.
Key Elements for effective Classroom Management:
1. Classroom Design- This refers to seating arrangement, bulletin boards, display, storage area,
equipment, supplies, etc.
2. Rules- These are the expectations set at the beginning of the class to foster love, care,
respect and sense of community in the class.
3. Discipline – Classroom rules must be defined the consequences of every action/
misdemeanor in class. This will ensure fairness and consistency in dealing with students. This
also includes the rewards given for good behavior.
4. Scheduling – This includes time allotment given for each period and activity in class. This will
make the students to stay on time and on task.
5. Organization – This refers to the systematic arrangement of files and records and keeping
them organized always and ready for use.
6. Instructional Techniques – These are ways by which you implement your learning content.
Tailoring your techniques to the subject, grade levels and nature of the learner is really
important.
7. Communication - Consistent open lines of communication to all the stakeholders of the
school community will lead to better teacher-student teacher relationship.

 In order to implement these elements effectively, a classroom management plan must be
designed. Each teacher has its own unique style of management to meet class needs, although
the same elements are found consistently. In order for a classroom management plan to be
successful, the students must have a complete understanding of each of the guidelines. At the
same time, the teachers must follow their plan to ensure that the learning environment is safe,
friendly, secured, and non-threatening whether in the classroom or in remote learning.

 MY CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT PLAN

Philosophical Statement
. The classroom must be organized at all times. Students must be well disciplined and must observe
cleanliness and orderliness in their surroundings. Everyone is expected to be friendly and take care of
one another to avoid conflict and arguments. Fighting is strictly prohibited, and those who will engage
in fights shall receive demerit points and shall be sent to the guidance office for counciling

Classroom Rules and Procedures

- Punctuality must be observed (Be early in class and always submit your requirements on time)
- Don't cheat (Avoid cheating in exams. Practice a study habbit that fits your time well)
- Keep the classroom neat at all times (Remember to keep the classroom nice and tidy)
- No vandalism (Don't write anything on the classroom walls and other designs inside the room)
- Wear the prescribed uniform (Wear the official school uniform and PE uniform on your PE
Day)
- Be respectful to everyone (Be nice and respectul to your classmates, teachers, and other staffs)
Teacher-Student Relationships
I will give time to talk to my students every other day to check their well being before class starts and
to make sure that everyone is doing well. I will give them the freedom to ask for consultation regarding
the lessons and activities and other things that they need advice or an adult's opinion. I will make sure
to be a good friend to my students outside the classroom to maintain a good relationship with my
students.

Schedules and Timeframes

I will not consume the entire timeframe for every subject. I will give a few minutes for my students to
prepare for the discussion before we start and also after we end the lesson so that they can also breathe
before their next subject.

Classroom Structure, Design and Arrangements

I will make a big room for the students so that they can move freely and not feel too hot because of
being overcrowded. I will put academic and non-academic designs on the classroom so that the
students can feel the vibe of learning inside the classroom. There will also be 2 teacher's table, one in
front and one at the back so that if I do not have a class at a specific time, I can still sit inside and work
on my loads even if there is a teacher discussing their lesson inside my classroom.

Classroom Safety Rules and Procedures

● Harmful jokes will be strictly prohibited
● Dangerous activities and games are not allowed
● Bringing sharp objects/weapons will not be tolerated
● I will conduct a GPTA meeting every now and then to ensure that the parents know how their
child is performing at school as well as their behavior

Strategies for Rewards and Consequences

● I will implement a merit-demerit point system so that the students will be more motivated to
do well in class
● Violating the rules inside the classroom will result to sanctions depending on the rules violated.

 Notice:

After reading and reviewing the classroom learning management plan from different sources and
creating your own plan, answer the following questions.
1. What salient components have you noted?

- I noticed that most of the classroom rules in every school is the same. Maintaining
cleanliness, honesty, and punctuality are only a few of the most common rules and
values that are to be observed inside a classroom.
2. Why is there a need to utilize the information to create your classroom management plan?

- It is important because one must create their own classroom management to have
authenticity and create a better management system inside the classroom based
on what one has observed in their experience as a pre service educator.

Reflect:

What were your realizations after creating your classroom learning management plan?

- After my experience in observing classroom management during our FS1, I realized

that there is no perfect classroom management and not all the rules implemented
inside the classroom is followed. However, teachers make sure to remind the
students from time-to-time to observe and follow them. Luckily, the students that I
have observed are obedient and respectful that's why even as an observer, they
still respect my authority and obey whenever I remind them of certain rules that
they sometimes forget to follow.
