I surely don't want to sabotage my classroom management plan.  I can see how easy it can be to do this, though.  Smiling at the wrong times, because the students are so cute could be a problem for me.  Not waiting for quiet can cause lots of problems, too.
I think I may need to keep this list handy as a reference when I'm teaching.

I read the 10 ways to sabotage your Classroom, and the very first one stuck out to me. It was labeled Smiling at wrong times. I have a very bad problem with smiling when students joke around. So I think I need to fix this problem. The other one I liked was the Not waiting for Quiet. I have a hard time with explicit instruction I'
m not very good at it and I think not waiting for quiet is definitely one of my problems.

I like number 1 on the 10 ways to sabotage your classroom reading. It says not to smile at the wrong times. I have noticed with some people I work with and I occasionally catch myself doing it too, but they smile when a student is doing something they should be doing and it ends up encouraging the behavior. I also liked how it talked about not standing in front of the classroom. walking around encourages students to stay on task.

Alex                                   I see nothing wrong with giving a student the look. They know you are watching them and don't agree with their behavior. This way by giving them the look you are not talking to them and causing all the students to look to see what they are doing.

I don't agree with Carrie, use your words...don't just give a kid the stare down. How are they suppose to know what you mean?

I read the first link called 10 ways to sabotage your classroom management. This was an interesting article to read and many of the ideas that it mentions that sabotage your classroom management are really true. For instance handling problems publicly can and will embarrass your students.  You should address the student about the problem later just between you and them.  If you do it publicly you are risking chances of a war starting between you and that student.  An alternative would be to just put a check mark on their desk while walking by with a magic marker to let them know that their first warning etc.

I read the article about the "evil eye". I disagree with the article. Sometimes a look is all you need to shoot over to a disrupting student in order for them to know that you notice their misbehavior. A look I sometimes better than having to disrupt the entire class.

I read 10 ways to Sabotage Your Classroom Management.  I very much agree with number two, Handling Things Publicly.  Not only is it embarrassing to the child, but it is also damaging to their self-esteem to sit there and yell at them in front of the whole class or single them out as an example of someone who does something wrong.  We teachers need to be building up student's self-esteem, not tearing them down.   If we're always putting them down, they are going to stop trying.  These kids look up to us and we have a responsibility to them, to give them a safe environment to learn in.

I read the 10 ways to sabotage. The one that popped out to me most was 4. Not Waiting for Quiet. My mentor teacher does "waiting for quiet" very well. She has first graders and they are very well behaved because she will wait. I think it is important to start this process from the first day of school and don't get lazy about it. I feel like you will potentially have better classroom management when you take the time to wait and don't "give in" just because you have too many things to get through that day.

One of the things I enjoyed about this article was that classroom management is complex, it can take years to develop. I also liked how they gave examples and then offered a different solution to the problem.  Who knew that you had to "time" your smiles:)

I like number four in the article that lists the 10 ways to sabotage classroom management. It is "Not Waiting for Quiet". This is something I have seen in my practicum. It is really easy to want to keep the class moving at a faster pace, therefore starting directions or instruction before EVERYONE is quiet. The article states that "it’s easy to blame kids for being poor listeners, but the problem could actually be the teacher’s timing." If they don't stop talking to hear the teacher, they'll end up distracting someone else to ask about the directions or try to follow the directions based on what they heard, and end up being unsuccessful

I liked how it talked about waiting for everyone to be completely quiet before giving instructions. I know that i don't do this because I get impatient and feel like the students that are waiting are gonna loose focus too. But like the article said just 5 more seconds isn't long and it will be worth it.

I agree big time with the section talking about calling out the students in from of their peers. I fully support fixing a problem that might come up with one of your students, but I don't think you should do it in front of the rest of the class, especially for something that might be a little more serious. If it is just a little goof, then just quickly mention it but don't try and embarrass a student.

I liked the 10 things teachers do to sabotage their teaching. One that I have observed in classrooms is the teacher always standing up at the front of the room and never walking around. By walking around students will most likely stay on better task and you can help answer questions. Also, only answering in don'ts has been a problem. When people are told not to do something, they tend to be more rebellious and act out even more. Remembering to stay positive, and not smile at the wrong times, but keep learning fun will benefit the classroom immensely.

I read the one about the giving the look and I have to disagree.  I think a look is a great way to let a student know you see them and are acknowledging their behavior without disturbing the rest of the class.

# data[].attributes.body
I have never thought about the evil eye being a bad strategy, but everything the author says makes total sense. And I've even seen the result of the look in some students in my practicum classroom. I was thinking about how I feel when I'm being reprimanded in this cold way, it's not a good feeling. You don't really arrive at any solution, you just feel embarrassed or mad that someone caught you in a bad moment.

So while I totally agree that the look is a bad idea, I'm wondering why the author didn't give any alternative suggestions.  What exactly does a teacher do in that moment?  Do you ignore the behavior until you have a chance to talk to the student in private?

# data[].attributes.body
I read the 10 Ways to Sabotage Your Classroom Management article. I really liked some of the suggestions like moving around the room while you teach and using visuals and not just auditory cues for instruction. I can see why they say not to smile when students are misbehaving and I agree with that idea for the most part, but I think keeping a sense of humor helps you stay sane and it can help your more anxious kids feel comfortable when trouble arises and smiling sometimes might help them know it's naughty but not the end of the world. I think 100% follow through might be more effective than being super serious in some situations.

I read about giving the look. This was a very appropriate message because I gave multiple students "the Look" today. It's hard I guess, as the practicum student, because I don't feel that I have a whole lot of control over the classroom to begin with. However, I remember how much "Looks" like this hurt, and how little they communicated. I liked the message about how it's not real accountability nor leadership. I will definitely make an effort not to give it!

(I posted this now because I usually don't have good computer access during class).
