This video-based professional development course demonstrates how to engage middle and high school students in a well-managed, highly productive first day of class; establish key classroom routines to maximize daily learning, and implement proactive strategies and techniques that create positive classroom environments and minimize misbehavior.

Secondary teachers prevent many behavior problems and set a positive, productive tone for the school year in the way they establish classroom management routines and clarify expectations at the beginning of the school year.

You will learn how to:

• Make best use of the first day of class to set a positive tone and establish high expectations for student attitudes and behaviors
• Establish and reinforce management routines and procedures to gain more time for teaching and learning
• Initiate positive relationships with students using simple, straightforward strategies
• Clearly communicate classroom rules in ways that increase student cooperation and compliance
