Proactive Classroom Management Plan [FREEBIE]

As we approach the new school year, it's important to remember that there are aspects to classroom management that go beyond rules, procedures, and reward systems (although you will want ALL of that as well!). Use this guide to help you plan for how you will create and maintain classroom community, relationships, a culturally responsive classroom, foster growth mindset, and what classroom management models you really want to focus on (Positive Discipline, Assertive Discipline, Conscious Discipline, Character Education). There are many to look at and determine which might work best for you and your students. On the second page, outline your expectations, procedures and social skills you will need to teach at the beginning of the year, your reinforcement system (whole class and/or individual), how you will communicate with parents consistently, and what your redirection to problem behavior plan will be and what consequences you will need to utilize. This, of course, is after you have taught expectations and skills the student may not have and while implementing a reinforcement plan. Consider what privileges a student might need to lose or what unfavorable consequences you might need to implement. Use the last page to reflect on what has worked and what may need to be changed or implemented differently.
