43. Building Strong Classroom Management

Kindergarten Cafe Podcast

Get rid of the clip charts and public behavior displays! We need to understand behavior as communication and advocate for a problem-solving approach. In this episode, we explore effective classroom management strategies, and highlight the inefficacy of quick-fix systems. It is important to invest time in proactive measures rather than implementing instant solutions. Key components such as teacher language, classroom setup, routines, and student relationships are identified, alongside the significance of responding to misbehavior with empathy and logical consequences. Consistent reinforcement of positive behaviors and clear expectations through proactive strategies are so important. As well as strong student-teacher relationships in successful classroom management.

In this episode I share:

• How behavior is a form of communication
• Proactive classroom measures
• Building relationships with students
• Responding to misbehavior with empathy
