Classroom Management Plan

Classroom Management is the key component in any educational setting.
When students are in a safe learning environment, learning can take place. This
doesnt mean punishing behavior problems but rather a combination of setting the
tone in a class, preventing behavior problems with interesting and engaging
curriculums and effectively including all students in the classroom so that their
needs are met. Students are expected to behave in a manner that encourages safety
in the classroom and encourages learning.

Rules:

Make sure your locker is locked and take instruments home every night to
