The Best Way to Start and End Your ELA Class - 053

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Teachers consistently reach out to us asking how to make their classrooms run more smoothly because they are struggling to accomplish everything that needs to get done in a single period. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Think about it. Teachers are expected to manage taking attendance, checking homework, chatting with students about missing work or grades, passing out all the things, and collecting others--all while keeping twenty to thirty kids learning. In a 45 minute period, we are expected to do it all! </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Luckily, this problem of classroom chaos is probably one of the few things in teaching that has a shockingly simple solution. And I mean SO simple. I promise you, if you give my suggestions today a try, you will see massive improvements in not only your students’ focus and productivity, but also in your ability to be calm and accomplish all the logistical and organizational pieces that make a great classroom.</span></p> <p><strong>Links mentioned in this episode:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://eb-academics.ck.page/ef5c4f478d"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">ebacademics.com/freebellringers</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://ebacademics.mykajabi.com/engaging-ela"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">ebacademics.com/engaging</span></a></p> <p><strong>Are you enjoying the podcast?</strong><br /> Tag us <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ebacademics/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">@ebacademics</a> and let us know which episode you're listening to!</p> <p><strong>Make sure to Subscribe and leave us a Review!</strong></p> <p>Your review helps us reach even more middle school ELA teachers just like you!
