Classroom Management Phases
The 'Maintenance' Phase:
Effective teachers always maintain, consolidate and 'habituate' what they establish; from day one.
The Establishment Phase:
The defining stage with a new class that involves more than clarification of the rules and routines. It involves clarifying and teaching the fair, reasonable limits of acceptable behaviour with positive corrective language cueing.
The Cohesive Phase:
The phase in life of a class group where teachers have established the leadership and relationship positively, and confidently with their classes and positive 'habituation' has developed.
