As an educator, it will be beneficial to have a well-defined classroom-management plan that consists of rules and expectations that promote an environment of mutual respect and learning and support collaboration with parents/caregivers, colleagues, administrators, and cultural norms. This type of plan promotes strong and positive relationships with students and stakeholders.
Earlier in this course, you devised your classroom-management philosophy. Your classroom-management philosophy will help guide your classroom-management plan for this summative assessment.
Assessment Deliverable
Develop a 4- to 6-page comprehensive classroom-management plan that can be implemented in a specific elementary grade-level classroom. Develop it as it could potentially be shared with colleagues, administrators, or students’ parents/caregivers. Apply the principles of classroom management to develop and maintain a sense of community within a diverse (e.g., abilities, skills, cultures, and language learners) classroom. Consider utilizing information from previous assessments.
Identify an elementary grade level and include the following in your classroom-management plan:
Classroom-management model
Select and identify a classroom-management model that aligns to your philosophy and discuss the model in relation to student development, learning, and motivation.
Apply the principles of classroom management and knowledge of individual and group motivation and behavior to develop a structure for student discipline used in the classroom. Include a list of classroom rules and procedures for student behavior and their negative and positive consequences.
Describe a process that will be followed when a student behaves outside the scope of the basic classroom rules and consequences.
Explain how your classroom-management model supports cultural norms and promotes strong and positive relationships with students.
Student engagement, motivation, and the learning environment
Explain the relationship between motivation and student learning. Describe the strategies you would use to increase and maintain student motivation, foster active engagement in learning, promote positive social interaction, and build a supportive learning environment.
Describe the skills and attitudes you expect your diverse students to learn and demonstrate that promote positive social interactions and create a supportive learning environment.
Identify at least 3 engagement and management digital tools (e.g., apps, websites, devices) that can be used to provide students with a varied and dynamic learning experience that is familiar to them. Explain how you will integrate these digital tools to help you manage the classroom.
Classroom arrangement and physical layout
Design the arrangement and physical layout of a classroom for your identified grade level. You may also include photos or images of a classroom’s arrangement and physical layout.
Describe effective instructional methods that are supported by the physical layout and classroom arrangement.
Justify how this design or images influence a positive learning environment and promote appropriate student behavior.
Explain how your design or images will help manage your classroom’s diversity and social dynamics (e.g., students with learning disabilities, English learners).
Collaboration with families/caregivers and colleagues
Summarize at least 5 activities that are designed to establish and maintain a positive, collaborative relationship with families/caregivers. Explain how these activities promote the intellectual, social, emotional, and physical well-being of students.
Write a synopsis of a substitute teacher plan that details your classroom-management plan and class routines to effectively teach your students.
