Behaviour Management Ideas

 

Every school has their own behaviour policy that needs to be acknowledged.

This is the Behaviour Policy from a school I worked at. I was able to see that the use of sanctions and rewards were working throughout out the school and there was a difference in children’s behaviour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some useful ideas that can help with behaviour management.

• Weekly Head teachers award- Where every week the class teacher chooses a child from the class who has achieved or behaved well and refers them to the head teacher. The child who receives the aware may feel a s sense of appreciation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Extra play time- During school day the teacher gets to tally up minutes. Each minute can be awarded from a positive behaviour in the class or if the child has done an exceptionally good piece of work Or if the whole class has been behaving well. Once the tally is counted that is how many minute the whole class gets extra play. This strategy can also be used if the children are miss behaving and tell them’ This is coming out of your extra play’.  

 

 

 

 

• Brain Breaks- To reduce tiredness and silliness during carpet time. The children get a mini break if they are seen to be tired. During this time the teacher can get the children on their feet and do a ‘Simon Says Game’ or ant form of physical activity that will refresh their brains.

 

 

 

 

• Table Points- This popular strategy schools use to manage behaviour. Children will all work together in groups and allows them to earn rewards for positive behaviour.

'Our ability to learn what we need for tomorrow is more important than what we know today. As a result knowledge  continues to grow and evolve (Siemens, 2004).  Therefore by learning from other teaches and taking their advice on the topic of behaviour for learning will help you further your understanding.
