Assignment

Establishing classroom procedures and routines helps to optimize time for instruction and allows the learning environment to operate efficiently. Students and teachers need to have procedures for everything, based on the needs of the particular class.

For this assignment, identify a class of students in terms of grade level, K-8, and number of students in the class. Create a 10-12 slide digital presentation for the first day of school that will demonstrate how you will introduce expectations, processes, and diversity to your class.

Your digital presentation must include three parts:

Part 1 - Introduction

How to introduce yourself to your students

How students will introduce themselves to each other

How the expectations, procedures, and behavior management will be introduced

How the procedures and expectations will be enforced, along with possible consequences

Part 2 - Expectations for Policies and Procedures

Choose five policies and procedures, applicable to your chosen grade level, from the list below or of your own, and describe how to implement them in your future classroom:

Entering the classroom

Using the restrooms

When students may go to the trash cans

The use of technology in the classroom

Turning in classwork and homework

Talking to others in the classroom

Gaining student attention

Transitions

Part 3 - Incorporate Diversity

How to address diverse needs in your class (e.g., a student in a wheelchair, a student does not speak English, a student who does not celebrate traditional holidays, a student who cannot eat certain foods because of religion, a student who is a different race than the rest of the class, etc.)

How to instructionally support various diverse needs, including language, family backgrounds, skills, and abilities in your classroom

How to develop a culture in your classroom that values each students' diverse background

How to establish and maintain a positive and collaborative relationship with families.
