How does it work?

To propose a learning objective that considers skills, contents and attitudes to be developed in the unit, which must be related to the established curricular framework.

The objectives should be in general form and involve the highest quality of achievement in learning. And in accordance with the activities that arise within the unit.

When planning a unit, each class is to be in reason of such unit and activities in accordance with the objectives set for the class.

When formulating a class all the contents, attitudes and skills indicated must be present in the development of the classes

recomendations Teachers should identify expectations for students behavior and communicate those

expectations to students periodically. A small number of general rules that emphasize appropriate behavior may be helpful.

Rules should be posted in the classroom. Compliance with the rules should be monitored constantly.

Do not develop classroom rules you are unwilling to enforce. The School-Wide Regulations should be explained carefully. Because desirable student behavior may vary depending on the activity, explicit

expectations for the following procedures are helpful in creating a smoothly functioning classroom:

- Beginning and ending the period, including attendance procedures and what students may or may not do during these times.- Use of materials and equipment such as the pencil sharpener, storage areas, supplies, and special equipment.- Teacher-Led Instruction- Seatwork- How students are to answer questions - for example, no student answer will be recognized unless he raises his hand and is called upon to answer by the teacher.- Independent group work such as laboratory activities or smaller group projects.

Help learners to identify their own learning methods. Guide the learners to communicate with their peers

easily. Aim at meaningful communication among the

students in their target language. Give to students various types of interaction face to

face. Aim at searching into the learner’s prior learning

ability and their way of conceptualizing facts and ideas.

TEACHER’S ROLE

1It’s the teacher’s responsibility to create a learning atmosphere inside the classroom. It is through this interaction that the teacher can extract responses from learners and motivate them to come out with new ideas related to the topic.

2The teacher is a planner who plans out the best of the modules of interaction that would be effective to invite the learners in classroom interaction.

3Through classroom interaction the learners will be able to get themselves involved with concepts, ideas and various other devices and products for language and culture learning.

PERSONAL INTEREST IN STUDENTS TO IMPROVE THE CLASSROOM INTERACTION

Talk informally with students before, during, and after

class about their interests.

Greet students outside of school—for instance, at extracurricular events or

at the store.

Sit down next to a few students each day in the

lunchroom and talk with them.

Be aware of and comment on important events in students' lives, such as participation in sports,

drama, or other extracurricular activities.

Meet students at the door as they come into class; greet each one by name.

RECOMENDATIONS Improving classroom interaction involves continually

assessing your teaching, students learning, and your relationship with the students

 You can give feedback orally or in writing Sometimes you may want to correct an individual student in front of other students, while at other times it is better to offer general suggestions and corrections for the entire group

Make sure students understand your assignments. Ask if there is anything else that they need to handle the assignment. Ask the students if they understand why we are doing this assignment.

CONCLUSIONS

Class management and class interaction help learn better and have a good relationship in the school.

Both need constancy and repetition so that they are assimilated and then learned giving thus a good result.

Students feel more secure and act better in the face of learning.

The best way to have good results.
