Teaching With Bayley: Praise and Preparation
From Teachers TV, this Teaching With Bayley video illustrates an interesting approach to classroom management.
Behaviour expert John Bayley visits the classroom of science teacher, Amy Alexander, who has adapted her own experiences of teaching in a small Australian town to an inner-city classroom in the UK. The video shows Amy teaching a lesson and discussing her approach.
Amy advocates constant praise, saying, 'I'm using less energy by focusing on the positive'. She uses colour-coded lesson plans: key words are marked in green; sentences that students must write down are in black; instructions and things to do are in blue; and other information is in red (homework, for example).
