Strategies versus Techniques
Classroom Techniques• Stand still while giving directions• Interrupt yourself• Stop discussions just over the hill, not at the
bottom of the hill
Valuable discussion
Gossip and socialization
The end of valuable discussion
Volume Level
• Watch as much of the class as possible at all times (“withitness”)
• “Break the plane” very soon in each period• Be able to get to every student at all times– Own the room– Proximity control
Classroom Techniques
