The following classroom management plan details every aspect of my philosophy, rules, and expectations for my English 10 class.

I will use this management plan as a guide throughout the year in order to help me make decisions, plan lessons, and work with students. Classroom Philosophy I am committed to making my classroom a safe and challenging environment and engaging my students through the curriculum as well as getting to know them and interacting with them one-on-one. I believe that meeting the needs of my students is a very crucial part of my classroom. I want them to be comfortable with the other students, as well as me, so that there can be meaningful discussions and interactions. Talking will be common place in my classroom, along with group work. I want to encourage all students to participate in class so that they can learn from each other as well as me. I want to have a democratic and equitable classroom so that students can learn. I want to be a fair as I can be, so the students trust me I am committed to making my classroom a safe and challenging environment and engaging my students through the curriculum as well as getting to know them and interacting with them one-on-one.

School Policies and Procedures While I have my own specific set of guidelines, preventative measures, and rules for my class, I will defer to school policy in most situations. I have made sure my management plan adheres with school policy, and I have adapted several school regulations into my philosophy and rule list.

Preventative Measures 1. Share rules up front : On the first day of class, and periodically throughout the year, I will review my set of expectations for behavior, learning, and more.. 2. Treat students with respect 3. Create a positive environment: The lesson plans, homework assignments, and even exams must work together to create a positive experience that students will want to take part in. I will design each aspect of my lessons to foster an environment where education and learning come first, while trying to keep things as fun and interesting as possible. 4. Use various teaching methods: Everyone, myself included, will become bored and frustrated if the format of every class is the same. That is why I plan to mix things up by incorporating various forms of education, as well as different types of assignments and projects. 5. Encourage participation: By keeping students engaged in each lesson, I can keep them focused on the material Classroom Rules and Regulations 1. Respect opinions 2. Always be honest 3. No cheating: I expect all students to turn in work that is their own, with the exception of collaborative group projects. 4. Keep focus on the lesson 5. Show up on time 6. Make up work in a timely manner Rule Consequences The above list represents the rules that I expect all of my students to follow. The first time any of these rules are broken, there will be a warning. The second time a rule is broken, I will have a personal meeting with the student before or after class. The third time a student breaks the same rule, I will take away their privileges.
