TAM2601 ASSESSMENT 2
QUESTION 1
1.1
Classroom management refers to a process of setting the right and maintaining an
environment that is inviting and appropriate learning atmosphere by teachers through
strategies that promote positive behaviour of students and reduce interruptions. Its main
purpose is to establish safe, respectful and organized environment in which learning can
occur.
1.2
Classroom management is essential since it provides a structured predictable learning
environment, which promotes student interest and academic achievement. As teachers
handle the classroom successfully, they diminish disruption, sustain concentration in the
classroom, and foster the social-emotional growth of the learners.
1.3
Proactive approach: This is where rules and routines are formed in the classroom during the
start of the school year. As an example, when expectations on behaviour are made clear, then
the chances of misbehaviour are averted at the event of its occurrence.
Supportive approach: Teachers encourage positive acts by rewarding the students who
behave respectfully and cooperate with one another. As an example, students who assist
other students or obey directions should be identified as a way of encouraging a positive
culture.
1.4
Diverse learner needs: Classrooms in general have students who have different
backgrounds, differentiated learning and emotional needs. This means that it is hard to apply
one-size- fits-all policies. Solution: Introduce differentiated instructions and inclusive
classroom activities that will address all learners.
Poor parental support: lack of parental support can influence the attitude of learners and
behaviour. Solution: To encourage parents to be involved, their teachers can organize periodic
meetings and calls with parents or use a message group, such as WhatsApp.
