Visual Scanning Tips Be PURPOSEFUL and OVERT with your

scanning. Have a clear line of sight to all students and

visually scan all settings in the classroom frequently

Auditory Scanning Tips

Listen to all parts of the classroom Within your management plan,

there will emerge a baseline, or normal, level of background noise in your room

Whenever you notice a chance in this baseline level, turn up your level of with-it-ness.
