Using Routines and Procedures in the Classroom to Build Classroom Community

Today, we are exploring the importance of establishing consistent routines and procedures in the classroom and how they will help us in building a classroom community. While focusing on middle school students, the ideas provided are relevant to all grade levels. Discover how well-defined routines and procedures create a thriving learning environment. We explore the impact these practices have on student comfort, engagement, and community building. By intentionally teaching procedures, we ensure a focused and efficient classroom, promoting active participation. From managing materials to handling emergencies, we emphasize the essential routines that lay the foundation for an academic year filled with success and a harmonious community of learners.

I am dedicated to creating podcast content that you are interested in and helps you with in the classroom! That’s why I’ve put together a quick survey to get to know you and your needs a little bit better. It would be a HUGE help if you could head here to fill out the survey. It will only take 1-2 minutes of your time. The chance to fill out the survey will close on September 18,2023. As a thank you, if you complete the survey, I’ll enter your name into a drawing to win an Amazon or Starbucks gift card. Thank you! You can access the survey right here
