A teacher generated website of
classroom tested ideas that will help all teachers be more time
efficient. Solid classroom practices. Nothing fancy, just experience
born wisdom shared freely on the web.
No mention of the number 1 place to save classtime: effective classroom management. We can take back instruction time, and make every minute with the kids better by creating classrooms where kids know what is expected up of them when it comes to behavior.
We just have to teach to the behaviors we want... in a consistent and specific manner, then follow through with logical and consistent consequences... humane reactions that help teach our behavior expectations.
