Throughout my observations in classrooms, I have noticed that many teachers create their classroom rules with students during the first week of school. The teacher will display a big sheet of paper to the class, and ask the students what they think the rules should be. What do you think of this method? Is it effective towards classroom management? Or should teachers make the rules solely by themselves based off of their preferences? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I personally feel like students should help the teachers come up with some of the rules. I think that is an effective way to help your students behave in the classroom and also make your students feel included. Students are more likely to follow the rules that they help come up with. You can also help your come up with a solution when students don’t follow the appropriate classroom rules.
