Teacher’s physical presence

Aspects of class management to consider:

Proximity: how close or distant the teacher is from students.

Appropriacy: the way in which teachers stand or sit in the classroom RELATIONSHIP

Movement: how much the teacher moves around the classroom.

Contact: making eye contact with students, listening to what they have said and responding appropriately.

Teachers chief tools

the voiceThree issues to consider:

Audibility: teachers need to be audible/ but not necessary to shout Balance between audibility and volume

Variety: teachers should vary the quality of their voices and the volume.

Conservation: teachers need to take care of their voices Breathe correctly

Marking the stages of a lesson

Beginning: Its useful to start with a routine and introduce the topic for the class.

Development: Teachers should mark the ending and beginning of activities through clapping, speaking loudly or saying a rhyme.

Ending: The closure of the class should include a summary of what was taught.
