Well what i do to have control in the classroom is to be quiet and letting them know that Im observing and evaluating them. When They notice that Im quiet and not saying anything, they one by one start to Sit down. When one of them asks me, why Im not doing anything, i just say, when All of you are quiet i start teaching otherwise Im not beginning. Hey! That works. And Remember to keep your own emotions under control, you send them a message

[@savemoresavemoney]

The more you speak unnecessarily, the more the class gets loose. Teacher should maintain a strict balance b/w being friendly or being abusive.

[@SadafKhan-so4oh]

I agree

[@honestch4573]

But how???

[@lovinaogundeji]

But how? It is hard to not be yourself (friendly) because you are teaching

[@theairfamily1591]

Me as a strict teacher for 8 years

[@agungpangestu2942]

​@@lovinaogundejiI'm the opposite, it's hard for me to change my image/behavior from friendly teacher into strict teacher

[@ParallelMinute]

Well, you have to break them in the very first day, establish who's the boss and then be diligent in maintaining it that way. I learned it the hard way.

[@royahashimi6272]

thank u so much. All these techniques had been covered in a teacher training which I had had through my school.

[@TheChickwithguns]

Works sometimes. I have been teaching for almost 15 years. This all hinges on the kids. Not every group responds to silence. I have had to develop a number of tactics. Silence doesn’t work in my current situation.

[@lovinaogundeji]

If you are always leading a constructivist classroom, there may be noise so I agree with this

[@estheryeshua1815]

I agree, kids are smart, once they know how teachers are and the teacher's pattern of teaching they go back to making noise again. haha

[@user-dm6ul9pz8r]

Maybe you have shown them some weakness and that’s why They dont react to your silence. When you are quiet How is your face? Dont show any sign of anger or worriness. And dont even think what others teacher are thinking of you at that moment, only focus and being not emotional. You’ll see results

[@TheChickwithguns]

@user-dm6ul9pz8r I don’t worry or get angry. They have gone three years with principals who did not discipline them. They have learned how worthless the discipline at the school is. They are unafraid, violent, crude and cruel. They have been taught by inaction that teachers are powerless. And who are we kidding? We are.

Oh how I would love having these sorts of problem. In my classrooms I'm dealing with students that randomly throw up from being drunk, others that want to physically engage with me because I pointed out the obvious, while others will steal from my bag when I'm distracted with the previous cases.

[@user-ol2si7ju9d]

I agree, great video and information provided but it is important to establish these strategies the first day and stick with it. Kids do so much better with consistent boundaries. I have been in different classes with a different teacher but same kids. If the teacher is inconsistent and doesn't reinforce, the students act out. The Same kids with a teacher that has great classroom management skills are so well behaved and are not acting out like when they have a teacher that allows anything to happen.

[@KoffiBossoMath]

[@manuelvalencia9407]

Thanks for your video and advice. One advice that I do (I'm a junior and senior high school teacher in Japan) is look at the person(s) who are causing the trouble and just stay focused on them. Since Japan is a "group" society, usually the students will get those people to quiet down. Another idea is to write the problem students' names on the board. Those students are going to start to question themselves and quiet down and so will everyone else. The other thing to keep in mind about noisy classrooms is the reason WHY they are noisy. It could be because the next period is a field trip, a holiday, or they are trying to prepare for something next period or later in the day. If that's the case, then tell them what you need to do (the lesson) and as a reward, you will give them free time. Just make sure they get your target lesson point, or else this won't work. Thank you again.

[@von8295]

How is teaching in Japan now?

[@ambition2959]

Threatening standards works every time. Kids hate one thing, boredom. Also if you punish them by reading every time they’re loud, they stop. If you punish the whole friend group for the behavior of one, their friends start managing each other so they don’t all get in trouble.

[@paulastuelke4811]

You read them the state standards? Until they are quiet or longer for a consequence?

[@ambition2959]

@@paulastuelke4811 what? Standards are when you write what you did wrong and how you will improve over and over again for a set amount of pages. For the first offense it’s usually 1 page front and back. If it continues the pages doubles so next time it’s two then four etc etc. by the 3rd time they change their behavior

1. Remind students to doing right 2. Do the opposite, silent treatment when they crowd. 3. Call and respond. Class class class, yes yes yes. 4. Secret agent. Each student give card.

[@felixbanze2274]

Don't shout, react otherwise to the state they are( If they are down cheer them up, otherwise do the opposite), compliment the ones with good behaviour rather than focusing on the ones doing wrong. Never shout, create a call and response

[@Kristina-dh1qd]

[@Ashintha325]

[@Kristina-dh1qd]

@@Ashintha325 we can’t beat them, we are new. They can do a video of us and we will lose our job forever

[@WilliamQuinones]

​@@Kristina-dh1qdunfortunately, some states still allow you to beat them and get no punishment for it. Situations like this has happened before and still goes on to this day. You would definitely lose it if you did it in a state where you're not supposed to (ofc this was written assuming you're in/from the US).

[@royahashimi6272]

keeping yourself silent works very well, as I have experienced in my class. In addition, when they were busy talking or doing something irrelevant to the lesson I would ask them Can I start? then surprisingly, all of them paid attention to me. I taught in a school for 6 months but I must confess that those 6 months were quite pleasant. I missed my students.

[@helenm5124]

Silence doesn't work in kindergarten for sure. I have 7 groups of 20 kids each. I've tried this and they simple don't care. Btw, there is a big chunk in each class that doesn't care whatsoever, they don't respond to anything. They just get up and do what they want, leaving any activity even amazing games

[@felixbanze2274]

I like the tip of encouraging the good behaviour instead of criticizing the bad one

[@zamaimane5808]

That's exactly what happened to me today, it was my first time I teach them 😂😂😂

[@heyjerson]

Hmmm. I think step 1 is identifying the type of noise the class is producing. One should be okay with productive noise which means learners are engaged.

[@AhaSlides]

That's correct! Thank you for pointing out the miss leading here. In fact, we often hear teachers using AhaSlides during class say the noise is even louder, but that's good noise, showing students are having fun and engaging. But for being able to keep them engaged, we should catch their attention first, so maybe those techniques we share in the video may help! 😊

[@hackgal8982]

❤so coool

[@rachellelubbe363]

😂 great advice.

[@RevElderKnight]

My experience in the Marine Corps has shown me that counting up: 1,2,3, . . . etc does not get students to stop unwanted action. Why, the learn at a very young age numbers get infidelity larger. Johnny, how high can you count. The more effect way it to count down: 10, 9, 8, . . . 3, 2, 1, zero. They know that something big is going to happen at zero, and they don't want to miss it. Like at the end of a basketball game, time is running out and they want to finish with the most points.

[@ThePretear691987]

Yup! As a teacher, I usually do countdowns to have my learners settle down, line up, or finishing their activities. It really is effective.

I did not completely understand the Spy Agent method. Do you tell the selected student that he/she is the spy? I understand that it is not the case (everyone may thus think they are the spy agent). If that is the case: I understand you never reveal who the spy was. So, I guess this game could work a limited number of times: It works because it creates the illusion that you (maybe) are the spy, so you have to be a great student. This effect would eventually disappear, when people played the game more and more, since in the end the spy is never detected and does not have a personal reward.

[@casualyoutuber]

I think it works like this: at the end of the lesson you say who the secret agent was. And you congratulate him/her

Every lesson, in the beginning, you pick a student card and don't tell who it is. In the end of the lesson you declare who the student is to the class. If the student was good during the lesson, the class gets reward.
