📢Classroom Routines: A Lifesaver for Educators! ⏳✨
Routines are a total game-changer! Not only can they transform your classroom overnight, but they also save you sooooo much time.
Ever thought about how much time is wasted repeating the same instructions over and over again? Routines give students consistency—a clear roadmap to follow. And when they know exactly what to do, the chances of them actually doing the right thing increase dramatically! 🚀
🧠Some of the most important routines that can make a huge difference:
✔️ Entering the classroom
✔️ Starting the lesson
✔️ Asking for help
✔️ What to do when finished
✔️ Group work
✔️ Leaving the classroom
✔️ Sitting down & standing up
🔹 How to make routines stick?
1️⃣ Teach them explicitly – Don’t just tell students the routine—show them and practice it for a few weeks.
2️⃣ Use good & bad examples – Let them see what works and what doesn’t.
3️⃣ Positive reinforcement Celebrate when they follow the routine! 🎉
4️⃣ Put it on display – Keep routines visible so students never have to guess what’s expected.
A little effort now means a calmer, smoother, and more productive classroom in the long run! What’s your go-to routine in the classroom? Drop it in the comments! ⬇️
