Q & A
Why is it important for teachers to be intentional with their choice of words?
-It is important because the words teachers use have power and influence students' behavior. Using positive language fosters a supportive environment, promotes unity, and helps students understand expectations more clearly.
How does the use of the royal 'we' benefit the classroom dynamic?
-Using the royal 'we' (e.g., 'We need to,' 'Let's do this together') helps to create a sense of unity and collaboration in the classroom. It encourages students to feel included and part of the team, rather than feeling isolated or pressured.
What role does politeness play in classroom instructions?
-Politeness is key in maintaining a respectful and cooperative classroom atmosphere. Using polite language (like 'please' and 'can you') demonstrates the behavior teachers expect from students and helps create a positive learning environment.
What is the effect of asking students to do something as if it is their choice?
-When teachers present tasks as choices ('You may do this if you'd like'), students feel more autonomy and are less likely to rebel. It creates a sense of empowerment while still ensuring the task gets completed.
How should a teacher address students' issues during group work?
-Instead of accusing students of misbehaving, teachers should ask questions to understand the situation, such as 'What’s going on here?' This approach maintains authority while allowing students to explain themselves.
Why is it important for teachers to set clear rules and procedures from the start?
-Setting clear rules and procedures at the beginning of the year ensures that students know what is expected of them. It helps avoid confusion and establishes a structured environment where students understand their responsibilities.
What is the significance of using phrases like 'Great job!' or 'Well done!'?
-Phrases like 'Great job!' and 'Well done!' are important for positive reinforcement. They motivate students, boost their confidence, and encourage them to keep performing well.
How can teachers encourage students to be more engaged and participative?
-Teachers can encourage participation by using inclusive language, such as asking questions about students' well-being ('How are you today?') and by offering opportunities for students to share their thoughts in a non-threatening way.
What is the purpose of waiting for the class to settle down before starting?
-Waiting for the class to settle down shows that the teacher is in charge and that their authority is respected. It establishes a calm, orderly environment before the lesson begins, signaling that the class is ready to focus.
How should a teacher handle a situation where a student has not understood the material?
-If a student does not understand the material, the teacher should encourage them to raise their hand for help. Asking questions like 'Does everyone understand?' allows the teacher to assess comprehension and offer additional assistance.
