Rules and procedures:

Since your students are new to your class, it really helps to spend time discussing with them why we have rules as a class, and bringing them to an agreement that we need these rules.
Rules need to be few, simple and frequently reinforced.
Whole Brain Teaching is a great resource for many classroom management strategies, and well worth a look. I love their rule number five, the catchall, "Keep your dear teacher happy!"

Shadow Teacher Perspective:
rules, schedules, classroom management Strategies applied within the classroom setting should be visually presented to the student. Visuals such as schedules, classroom activities and other visual cues are fundamental basics used within the TEACCH method. If students can visually see what is expected of them and how one needs to behave; they will more likely respond accordingly and avoid anxious or negative behavior. The TEACCH method provides many useful tools that can be practically applied within the classroom setting. Visit www.teacch,com to learn more-Angelik.
