Strategies for being an effective classroom manager 1. Show how they are with it. Used term whithitness Management startegy in which teachers show students that they are aware of what is happening. Allow them to detect inappropriate behavior early, before it gets out of hand.

2. Cope effectively with overlapping situations Kounin observed: some teachers seem to have one track minds, dealing with only one thing a time. This effective strategy often led to frequent interruptions in the flow of the class Effective managers were able to deal with overlapping situations in less distruptive ways. Example: in the group situation, they quickly responded to students from outside the group who came to ask questions but not in a way that significantly altered the flow of the reading goups activity.

3. Maintain smoothness and continuity in lessons. Maintaining students interest and not giving the opportunities to be easily distracted.

4. Engange students in a variety of challenging activities Engange students in a variety of challenging but not overly hard activities. The students frequently worked independently rather than being directly supervised by a teacher who hovered over them.
