Clinical Field Experience A: Classroom Management & Expectations Annaleise Diaz College of Education, Grand Canyon University SEC-510: Creating and Managing Engaging Learning Environments Dr. Marsha James March 13, 2024 Claire Zante
1. The teacher’s classroom management philosophy, including theories or research the philosophy incorporates. I observed Miss. Zante’s special education classroom at Dry Creek Elementary. Miss. Zante’s classroom management philosophy is to respect one another. Treat others the way you want to be treated. She believes this philosophy is important especially when working in the special education field. Her students face different challenges every day and by treating her students with kindness and respect is what helps the classroom run efficiently. 2. How expectations, routines, and procedures are introduced and reinforced in the classroom. Since Miss Zante’s students need expectations, routines, and procedures, she introduced them at the beginning of the school year. If her plan isn’t working out she then coordinates with the parents to create a routine that can correlate with their home routine, expectations, and procedures. 3. How the classroom expectations and procedures match the teacher’s philosophy. Miss Zante’s classroom expectations and procedures match her classroom management philosophy because she goes beyond and above to make sure her students are comfortable, safe and secure in her classroom. Her philosophy is to treat others the way you want to be treated. By coordinating her expectations and procedures with her student’s home life, she is providing stability and consistency in the classroom. 4. How the teacher deals with and handles behavioral issues in the classroom. When dealing with behavioral issues in the classroom, Miss Zante coordinates with her site leader, the school psychologist, and the student’s parents. Fortunately, she does not deal with behavioral issues often. She does struggle with redirecting her student’s attention to their lessons. If a student does have a behavioral issue she contacts the parents on the matter to see if there has been a change in dynamic at home and records the behavior to see if there is a pattern. 5. How the classroom is physically set-up. Her classroom set-up is students are sat facing forward toward the front of the class to allow Miss Zante to notice any student who is distracted. In the back she has a big desk where she can have one-on-one time with the students who need it. 6. Describe how you will apply what you have learned to your future professional practice. Would you do anything differently? Why or why not? From what I learned from observing Miss Zante is that coordinating with parents is what helps students succeed in the classroom. Parent involvement is important because it allows the teacher to adjust their rules, expectations, and procedures in order to create a consistent environment for their students. I liked her philosophy of treating others the way you want to be treated. I believe her philosophy is something I would like to practice
in my classroom as well because it’ll allow me to create a better connection to my students. 7. What remaining questions or concerns do you have with regard to a classroom management plan? My remaining question or concern regarding a classroom management plan is, how long does it take for a new teacher to implement a classroom management plan and for students to follow it? What realistic expectations should a new teacher have when trying to implement a classroom management plan?
