							| I �m so sorry to hear that.  I �ve been there!  Class management takes time.  Try to observe other experienced teachers -- as many as possible.  Ask them to observe you to give you tips.   Cheer up! |  10 Nov 2012

							| Only with time will you manage your classes well, it happened to all of us teachers ... The fact that you worry about it and want to improve is the way to start ! There �s a great book about it, which I used when I had my TTC course, send me your email by Pm and I �ll send it to you. Un abrazo! |  10 Nov 2012

							| Just remember the age group you are teaching and adjust your timing acordingly.  Set up a routine that you do each day.  Teach the lesson, ask questions from the kids and then play some sort of game or game (s).  Kids expect the same routine.  The younger they are, the shorter the activities.  I give out a lot of Angry Bird points on their notebooks if they participate (it sort of a game to see who gets the most points).  Every now and then, I give all the kids who just speak out the answer points.  Points in a formal manner does not help, but I found that if I give all the kids 15 points (plus participation points found on their notebooks) during the last 15 minutes of the class, regardless if they finished, they all expect it every day at the end of every lesson (35 kids, 15 points plus participation points in 10 minutes with words of encouragement for doing whatever they did) seems to make them want to come back for more.   John |  10 Nov 2012
