Devin Bryant-
ReplyDelete1. At different levels of schooling, there are all different scheduling types. Why can't it be the same for k-12?
2. Never give up. Never surrender
3.Planning is key with teaching. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

ReplyDelete1.Does the grade level depend on whether you should group students together? I ask because I am in a 2nd grade classroom and groups of 4 desks seem to work well.
2."We shape our dwellings, then our dwellings shape us." Winston Churchill
3. Froyen and Iverson (1999) categorize effective classroom management into three distict areas of content managment, conduct managment, and covenant managment. pg. 442
Devin,
ReplyDeleteGreat comments here!
There are different types of schedules based in different districts and different educational philosophies too. I assume you mean why can't all of the St. Joe schools start at the same time here though? Look at the bus schedules. If a district only has a certain amount of buses available, then they have to make several trips to pick up students. Even if there are enough buses to do one trip, some object to having elementary children with high school children.
Planning is of utmost importance in education!
Brandi,
Look back at John Dewey's work here. He believes in group work for all levels. I agree it works well with elementary students too. Good points here!

ReplyDelete1. Your classroom is very much a democratic classroom has this method not worked for you in the past?
2. "Effective teachers manage their classroom. Ineffective teachers discipline their classroom." -Harry Wong
3. Performance in managing a classroom does not rest entirely on rules, routines, rewards, and reprimands, but is a far more complex combination of all that a teacher is, knows, and does/
I wasn't able to post on BlogSpot for some reason for chapter 12, so here's my discussion card:
ReplyDelete--Does the arrangement of the classroom contribute to student comprehension and learning? If so, what is the best arrangement?
--"We shape our dwellings, then our dwellings shape us." - Winston Churchill, pg 439
--There are four different parts of classroom life that influence behavior: "forming," "storming," "norming," and "performing." **I like how these rhyme. It makes it easier to remember them....

ReplyDeleteI've tried several times to post on the blog and for some reason it won't let me. So here it is.-In the book it mentions three classroom arrangements, U, V, and W. It seem from being in the schools now and remembering back, the younger grades in elementary schools seem to use the Room V and the older one Room U, is the true in most cases of elementary schools?

-It is the student learning that results from the organization of a classroom that best determines the effectiveness of any management plan. Thanks
