To make sure the student stays focused and on
task.
This strategy should be used daily, at the
beginning of the class, as well as the first day of
class to set up class rules and structure.
This strategy is to first develop a simple list of
classroom rules and expectations. Keep the list
simple. For classroom rules keep the wording
short and simple to remember. Rules should be
introduced on and touched upon throughout the
year. Example list could look like:
-Do your best
-Respect one another
-Raise your hand
Additionally the strategy can be used at the
beginning of class to outline the days activities.
This can show the main points and shifts in
direction throughout the day, so students can
know what to expect. For example:
-Bell Work
-Interactive Notebooks
-Video Response
-Post Its!
It can help for students to walk in the class with a
visualization of how the class will play out. There
are two main benefits to comprehension. One is
how we interact with each other which is shown
with the rules that govern the class as well as the
activities we take part in. The second is when to
expect these different interactions. If a student
has both of these outlined for the class, he is able
to better focus his attention and not be
overtaken with anxiety/anticipation/restlessness
etc.
