Managing Instructional Time
Beginning ClassWhen teachers have a plan for students when they first enter the room,it will reduce chaos and questions as well as behavioral problems at the
beginning of the day.
Ending classA poster will describe and illustrate the following procedures tobe followed every day:1. Tools: The tool helper collects the tools and puts them away.2. Artwork: The paper helper collects the artworks and puts it allin the table folder.3. Silent: Everyone sits silently waiting to be called to line up.
Lining upA piece of colored masking tape on the floor marks where the students
begin the line. At the beginning of the school year each student is given anumber for the whole year. The students will line up in this order. Thefirst day number one is first in line and then the other students line up in
order. On the second day number two is first in line. And so on.

Taking attendanceAfter the instructional time, while the students are engaged in theirart project, I will take attendance silently.
Organizing, distributing, and
collecting materialsStudent helpers are rotated throughout the year. Each tablewill have one helper assigned to getting crayons or basicsupplies and one helper will get paper for the table. These
will be the same helpers that collect the supplies at the endof class.
Using the pencil sharpenerA can of sharpened pencils is provided to trade with if a child
needs a sharpened pencil. During engaged time, they can get upfreely to get a pencil. If a child finishes an art project early, her or
his job can be to sharpen the pencils.
Student questions
A poster on the wall clearly defines the procedure forquestions. I also use the Ask Two technique. Before
students are allowed to ask me a question during activitytime, they must ask two other students in the class to try and
find the answer.

Changing activitiesA five minute warning bell, followed by a two minute warning
is used to indicate a transition or clean-up time.
Getting into groupsWhen we have group work I call the students up by table and
keep them in the same group as their table. They return to theirindividual seats by table number.
Redirecting students attentionMake use of non-verbal gestures such as a look or a wave of the
hand to redirect behaviors that are taking the class off task.Next, use proximity to gain the attention of the student.
Use of the restroom
and water fountainUse of the water fountain is not allowed, and this is
explained at the beginning of the year during extensiveprocedure talks. Request that students use the
bathroom before or after class.

THE BASICS:-Raise your hand tospeak-Listen while others arespeaking-Cooperate with the
teacher and others-Keep hands and feet toyourself
EmergenciesUse the buddy system. Have the students practice lining up atthe door with their buddy before the actual fire drill so they are
less frightened or anxious during the actual drill. There is notalking and there are nobathroom breaks during fire drills.
RULES
Go over the rules every dayin the first few weeks of
school.
Post these rules on a
colorful illustrated poster in the front of theroom.
THE GOLDEN RULES:Rule #1 - Only use words thatare kind and encouragingwhen talking about another
person's artwork.Rule #2 - Only usewords that are kind andencouraging when talkingaboutyour own artwork.

Spider Web- This game can be played
with any type of string with students
sitting in a circle facing one another. The
first person holds onto the ball of yarn
and grabs the end piece. Without letting
go, the student says his/her name and a
bit of information about themselves they
would like the class to know. After the
student has finished, he/she tosses the
ball of yarn to another student in the circle, still holding on the end piece of
string. The next student does the same, introduces him/herself and says one
thing they want to share. When they are done, they toss the ball to another
student still holding onto a piece of the yarn closest to the ball. At the end of
the game, the students have created a web that resembles a spider web.
(Experiential learning, 2010)
Fabulous Flags - In this activity everyone creates their own personal flag.
Students will need paper, markers, crayons, etc. The flag should symbolize

themselves, their likes, interests, etc. When completed, the students share
their flags and explain the meaning of what they drew. (Ice breakers, 2008)
Comic Strip Chaos - Give each student a piece of a comic strip. They have
to find the other students with the same comic, and then arrange themselves
so that the comic strip scenes are in order. (Ice Breakers, 2001)
Name and Favorite Food - In a circle, the first child begins "My name is
____, and my favorite food is ____." The next person in the circle then hasto introduce herself or himself and the previous person to see whether they
have been listening. (Hopkins, 1998)

Silent Birthday Order - Have the entire class stand in a circle around the
room. Tell the kids that their mission is to put themselves in birthday order
without speaking, mouthing the words, or writing anything down. Usually 1
or 2 kids figure out that they can use their fingers to hold up the number of
the month they were born in.
Positive reinforcements are effectivebecause they put expectations of thestudents in place. When the studentsfeel that the teacher believes in them,
and believes that they are well-behavedstudents, they are more likely to act thatway.
