How you greet students at the door
How you dress
What signs are posted in your classroom
The message on the board or projector
The obviousness that you are organized and ready
That you are in control of the learning environment of the classroom

Students want a well-managed classroom even more than the teachers do because there is security in a classroom that is
consistent.
Consistency comes from procedures and routines.

FIRST LESSON ACTIVITY
Do only after quiet signal and behavioral expectations have been successfully taught
Carefully explain rules for the activity and then explain them AGAIN! Practice for smooth delivery
Stop activity and re-explain rules for the activity and behavioral expectations if any breakdown
Carefully choose an activity that allows students to respect one another and the teacher and that can be easily managed
![Page 28: Welcome New SPS World Languages Teachers!. Introductions Julie West French teacher, Parkview High School Nancy Schneider Curriculum Specialist Social](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dc35503460f94ab5fc4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Dismissing the class : In the final few minutes...
Reiterate your excitement for the upcoming year
Tell the students that you are pleased to have met them Explain the rules for exiting the classroom--pick up all belongings, throw away any trash on the way out, put chair in correct position
Remind them that the teacher dismisses the class, not the bell
Collect questionnaires, other paperwork before or as they leave
Stand at door to say goodbye to each student
Plan a filler activity so that you teach bell to bell
