room, drop your voice to a whisper, giving instructions quietly.

the in the moment of surprise silence.

ANNOYING CLASSROOM DISTRACTIONS 
How can a teacher prevent irritating classroom behaviors? 

Use simple verbal reprimands when the misbehavior occurs. Make sure 
that they are to the point, moderate in tone, and private (e.g., “Stop 
talking and work on your math problems, please”) 

Intervene as soon as possible in order to prevent the misbehavior from 
occurring (e.g., say “Harry, may I help you with your assignment?” when 
the pupil begins to show signs of frustration). 

Use facial expressions to convey to the pupil that the misbehavior was 
not totally overlooked. Circulate around the room frequently, to avert 
potential behavior problems. 

Give praise to the entire class as frequently as possible (e.g., “Thank you 
for working so quietly,” or “I’m delighted to see you all working so well 
today.)
