Top 5 of Classroom Management Tips

1. Use a normal, natural voice

   • Do not shout! You lose your voice
   • Differentiate your tone
     • Be sure to use the appropriate tone to question, ask them to do something, and call their attention

2. Speak only when students are quiet and ready

   • Just wait and then wait some more until all students are quiet.

3. Use hand signals and other non-verbal communication

   • Holding one hand in the air, and making eye contact with students is a great way to quiet the class and get their attention on you
   • Flicking the lights off and on once to get the attention
   • Try clapping your hands three times and teaching the children to quickly clap back twice.

4. Address behavior issues quickly and wisely

   • You and the student should step away from the other students,
   • Don't accuse the child of anything
   • You must address bad behavior during your instruction

5. Always have a well-designed, engaging lesson

   • If you don't have a plan for them, they'll have one for you
     • Bored students is the same as disaster
