EDUG 520 CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT PLAN

Statement of Purpose

Our classroom is a fun, adventure filled safe environment

for all students to work cooperatively and efficiently
together. We aim for positive communication, teamwork,
creativity, critical thinking and problem solving, to
promote our community. We are working towards
becoming upstanding citizens.

Raise your hand
Be kind to one another
Be Safe:
Keep your hands and feet to yourself
Use kind words
Be Responsible:

Procedures
Procedure 1) Line Up
Detailed steps of Procedure:
When students are preparing to go into class, walk to an assembly, or any
moment when the students need to line up I will begin to sign to the
students. I hope that this procedure will limit the amount of yelling that I
need to do to gain the students attention and to have them line up. As the
students begin to see me signing for them to line up, they will order
themselves in number order. This will aid me in knowing who was there for
the day and which tables will gain points for being in line nicely.

language

Procedure 2)
Detailed steps of Procedure: Comment, Question, Answer, restroom signs.

When the students enter my classroom on the first day, I will begin to teach
them various signs that would promote non-verbal communication. This will
limit the amount of side conversations and excess answers or questions
during lectures. The students will be able to instantly tell me when they need
to go to the restroom, have a comment regarding the lesson or have
something they need to tell me. The student can also sign that they have a
question and can limit off topic questions during lessons or throughout the
day. BY showing the students the sign for having an answer, I am providing
them with a way to clearly show me they either 1. Understand the question,
2 are thinking about possible answers and 3 are actually attempting to
participate.

procedures/

Procedure 3)
Detailed steps of Procedure: Give Me Five

When students see me raise my hand or call out give me five, I will have
taught them to, 1. (If they are on the carpet) have legs crossed, or if they are
sitting at their desks sit properly on their seat. 2. They will place their hands
quietly in their lap or on their desk. 3. They will put their listening ear on,
meaning they will try to focus on what I am saying. 4. They will turn their
eyes to me and show me that they are watching. 5. They will catch a bubble,
limiting the chatter and respecting me and one another.

Procedure 4) Class Jobs

Detailed steps of Procedure: Class Jobs
Each week I will assign each student a class job. This will provide them with
responsibility within the classroom and encourage each students to work as
a community. There will be various jobs ranging from, pencil sharpener,
paper passer, gluer, lunch counter and many more. Each of these jobs will
change each week on a rotation through the students numbers.

Procedure 5) Hand Signs

Detailed steps of Procedure:
There are multiple signs that will be utilized within the classroom throughout
each day. When the students need to get drink water, grab a tissue, need a
pencil, they will show me these specific signs. This will limit the amount of
talking or out burst and will provide me with a better understanding of what
the students are doing or need.

Consequences Positive Behavior

Tangible: Blurt Certs
Blurt certs are tied to the blurt system. As students show exceptional
behavior, helping one anothering and promotion the overall community of
the classroom I will reward them with a blurt cert. These ccertificates will
range from homework passes, a coupon for the treasure chest, flexible
seating and going to lunch a two minutes early. By giving the students these
certificates we are working on promoting our over all community within our
classroom through kindness perserveracnce and by following the directions.

Social: Class Dojo

Class dojo will be used for individual rewards and whole class rewards. When
a students in on task. Following directions. Sitting nicely on the carpet, has a
smooth transition they will be awarded a positive dojo point. As the week
continues they will have opprotunities to collect and earn dojo points for
prizes from the treasure chest. This will encourage them to stay focus and
will aslo allow for self competiion. As a whole class, the students can earn
class dojo points that will provide them will class rewards such as extra
recess time, early lunch dismissal or homework passes.

Activity: Blurt Beans

Within the first week of school I will introduce the BLURT system to the class.
This system is set up to encourage the students to follow the give me five
procedure. When the students are not blurting out or focusing on their work,
I will reward them with a bean. There will be specific points marked on the jar
that the students can either cash in their beans to gain this reward of keep
saving for a movie day. Blurt beans are the center of the Blurt tier system.
Students can gain rewards for the whole class, for small groups or personal
rewards for themselves.

classroom-management.html
Consequences Negative Behavior
 During the day, I will provide students with blurt cubes. Each student will start the day off with
the word Blurt. Throughout the day, if students start to act out or go off task I will take away a
cube. At the end of the day we will track to see how many cubes the students ended up with.
This system, will grant you a prize at the end of the day if they have the full word blurt.

The students will also be subject to negative dojo points throughout the day. This will provide
me with real time tracking of their behavior as well as their parents.

 Restorative Practices

If there were a conflict between students in your class, describe the restorative practices
you would use to address the conflict. (Please describe both informal and formal practices).

If there were a conflict within my classroom I would go about assessing the situation as I stepped
in to aid the students through the conflict. Depending on the severity of the conflict or
disagreement with the students I would use various levels of informal and formal restorative
practices.

Situation: Using Affective Restorative Statements and Restorative Questions.

Two students are arguing over a flexible seat choice. The teacher notices one student is sad as the
other yells that the seat belongs to them. The teacher first redirects the student yelling to a new
area. Once the student leaves the situation, the teacher begins to speak with her, first by stating It
was very difficult for me to hear you speak to her that way. Then the teacher would ask the
student, Do you think that was a nice way to handle that situation? How would you have felt
being yelled at? By asking the student these two questions the teacher is trying to gage the
students empathy for the situation and other student.

Pro-active Circles/ Responsive Circles

If the situation continues to progress, the teacher would then have a class meeting regarding the
rule of flexible seating. She will ask students to share the rules designated for this privilege and
how each student should go about working out situations regarding it. The teacher will remind
the students that when two people want the seat they can play rock paper scissors to solve who
gets the seat.

Meetings/Conferences

If the issue continues with this student after, the teacher clarifies the rules and discusses it with
the class, the teacher will then call for a meeting with the students parents. The teacher will also
ask to speak with the principal to see if there is anything she knows of that may be bother the
student at home or outside of school. This will provide the teacher and the principal with similar
information and for the principal to be aware of the outburst in the classroom.
