Handling Misbehaviors/off-task behavior

Analysis

1. What is the basis of the classroom organization and routine?Their classroom rules and regulations are based on School Journal of Abellana National School. Behavior of the learner is one of the basis of organization and routine. Also, the area of the classroom affects the organization of the structures.

2. Cite certain theory that can support your answer. Share your insights with your classmates during class.

Skinner’s S-R theory, When routines are designed to be a habit in class then the Law of Exercise should be practiced combined with Pavlov’s Higher Order Conditioning, where the teacher can use different kinds of neutral stimulus to become the conditioned stimulus for the students. Added the positive reinforcement, such as feedback

or verbal praises, from the findings of Skinner then the routine the teacher designs will be a very effective one.

Reflection

1. Imagine yourself organizing your classroom in the future. In what grade/year level do you see yourself in? What routines and procedures would you consider for this level?

If I would be a teacher, I will prefer to teach in Fourth year class because at this stage, they are more mature than in lower level. They are still manageable though they are independent, they can work in their own with out being told by the teacher. I would impose routines like cleaning inside and outside the classroom before and after the class, prayer and checking the attendance, and also the rules and regulations to be followed strictly so that there would be a smooth flow of teaching-learning process.

2. Should learners be involved in making the class rules? Why?Yes, students should also be involved in making the class rules

so that it would be clear to them and they will understand the importance of the rules and regulations. Also, it woul be easy for them to follow since they are the one creating the rules.
