Give the the students some input and responsibility in the rule making process. Create a &#8220;Classroom Contract&#8221; of agreed upon rules for both of us to sign, Perhaps have the parents \/ guardian(s) sign this as well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Explain skill-sets. Each student that walks into the room carries a unique knowledge base and abilities. One student may have a more complete set of skills \/ knowledge than another (set &#8220;A,B,C,D,F,H&#8221;, vs &#8220;A,E,G,H,I,J&#8221;), but make sure and emphasize that no ones set is by any means complete, even mine. There is always something to learn.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Which brings us to learning. What is teaching and learning? This is a great first day question to ask the students to clarify the task each of us has in front of us for the year.<\/p>\n<p>Gotta go. Miss Bird is demanding my attention. She is squawking loudly, an ear-piercing screech noise, then reprimanding herself  by saying&#8221;Not So Loud&#8221; very loudly. Too cute.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Linkedin\",\"StumbleUpon\",\"Digg\",\"Reddit\",\"Bebo\",\"Delicious\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"Teacher%20Notepad\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div><p>This post is mostly a note to myself, reminding me of concepts, techniques and misc. stuff to keep in my head when I finally get my teaching credential and have a classroom full of kids to teach.
