While muting an entire classroom for 35 minutes at a time so they “listen” isn’t ideal, every teacher needs to quiet a noisy classroom at some point. So recently, when I saw Todd Finley’s post on edutopia offering some fantastic ideas, I had to offer some of the tricks I had learned.
And note, much of what works is indeed about your personality. Classroom management isn’t a “strength” for me because I’m always nervous about being a “mean teacher,” and tend to use learning models that depend on open-ended learning, student self-direction, and inquiry and project-based learning.
