Now that you've finished college with your teaching degree and are ready to start your new job as a teacher, you wonder, "so why is classroom management something I need to know about my first day”? It's simple; classroom management is one of the vital tools you should invest in as a teacher. If you lack classroom management, chances are you won't be a good teacher that “40% of beginning teachers leave the profession within the first five years” (Garrett, p. 46); this is because the lack of respect for teachers comes from the students it is not adequately demonstrated whether effective classroom management is what in turn turns them away from their profession because of the way students behave. Through extensive research on classroom management, I have found that starting the year with a daily routine with the help of lessons works more smoothly because children like routines, I found that teachers should establish non-verbal cues so that teachers do not have to stop in the middle of a lesson to scold a student and I found that if students don't do a task correctly the first time, the teacher should make them complete the task and do it correctly. This is why investing in classroom management will make you a well-rounded teacher. It's the first day of school and you're excited to meet your new students and have your own classroom. But before you get started there are rules and regulations you should understand and implement. As novice teachers, it seems our expectations are high. It's crucial not to set your goals too high where you start to struggle.

Many times it is easy to abandon homework and walk away from competent classroom management, but it is important to not let our students take over. Dr. Ediger of Truman University gives us some tips on how we can help these students learn cooperation in the classroom. The suggestions consist of: “involve pupils with interesting activities, carry the lesson forward to minimize interruptions, plan each lesson very carefully so that pupils realize the seriousness of teaching and learning” (Ediger, page 15); understanding discipline and curriculum can help a lot in having effective classroom management.
