Guidelines for Classroom Management for elementary students

Mapping Out Your Classroom Management Plan for High School
According to the American Psychological Association, “Classroom management systems are effective because they increase student success by creating an orderly learning environment that enhances students' academic skills and competencies, as well as their social and emotional development.”
Here are eight examples of high school classroom management strategies that will help you with behavior management, and will also help students to feel respected, nurtured, and safe to express themselves.
Set Reliable Routines
Here is one area in which a high school student doesn’t differ that vastly from a kindergartner. Young children and teenagers alike benefit from routines and consistency. Routines give our days a sense of order, helping us to feel safe and to know what to expect.
Examples of regular routines for a high school classroom might include:
At the start of a language arts class, students can respond to a writing prompt on the board and freewrite for five minutes. You might post a quote of the day from an author, historical figure, or a celebrity as an idea starter.
When you take attendance, use the opportunity to ask students a fun question that they can answer instead of just saying “here!”
Have a designated spot for students to place completed work before they exit the classroom for the day. You might wish to label bins in alphabetical groups for easier organizing.
Certainly, some unexpected detours (such as having a local author suddenly drop in to greet your class) can surprise and delight your students. Once you have your routines in place, breaking them now and again can be a welcome change.
Establish Clear Rules
Know what your own “deal breaker” rules are and communicate them clearly—these are rules that you consider non-negotiable. Examples might include an expectation that students will keep devices in their lockers throughout the day, will be punctual and in their seats when the first bell rings, and will refrain from interrupting another classmate when they are speaking. But your rules may differ depending on your own philosophy and classroom environment.
Francis Jasson Villanueva, who teaches 11th and 12th grade science at La Salle Green Hills High School in the Philippines, starts every course with three key rules:
Before doing anything, consult with the teacher and ask for consent. (This rule is imperative for him, he says, due to safety concerns in the science lab.)
Make as many mistakes as you can before your work is graded. This is a chance for students to explore and ideate as they embark on what’s usually an unfamiliar process. So mistakes are a positive thing!
Know how to make a 4-point apology. This means that students can acknowledge and own that what they did was hurtful, express remorse, make amends, and then promise that it will not happen again. Many students are polite enough to thank others, but don’t know how to properly apologize.
Although some rules should be ironclad, such as asking students to avoid any demeaning speech or physical altercations, you don’t need to be a dictator about all the rules. “Students are more likely to buy into your expectations for the classroom if their voice is heard. Work with your students to come up with a list of classroom rules and consequences,” writes Brittany Mamphey.
