I was so excited to have a classroom to call my own, to teach by myself, to get to know my students and to help them grow as learners, as mathematicians, as writers, and as digital citizens. But, my first year of teaching was rough (I was teaching, coaching water polo, and getting my Masterâs degree) and I remember crying a handful of times. I am a perfectionist, OCD, Type A personality and felt like all the other teachers on my team had better classroom management than I did. In reality, I was just being hard on myself (or so I am told) but thatâs how I felt at the time. 236 237 238 239So, letâs talk about classroom management; the 240thing that they donât really teach you how to do in college (at least not when 241I was in school). Classroom management is something that many teachers struggle 242with during their first year of teaching and it can make or break your school year. 243Iâm here to tell you that classroom management does get better! Classroom 244management is something we learn through teaching experience and we, as 245educators, have to be willing and ready to adapt for each particular class and 246child on any given day. 247 248 249 250Balance 251 252 253 254Classroom management is all about balance and it has taken me nine years 255to perfect it. I have finally found the balance of humor and fun, confidence
256and established boundaries, and teaching and learning. Below I will share my classroom 257management tips for managing middle schoolers and having a successful school 258year. 259 260 261 262Note: The tips I am about to share are what works for me. I know teachers with different classroom management strategies and styles that work wonderfully for them. Use what best fits your personality and your teaching style. The tips I am sharing need to be implemented and reinforced every day, starting on the first day (otherwise May/June will be a nightmare for you and no one wants that). 263 264 265 266 Classroom Management Tips 267 268 269 270 271Relationships 272 273 274 275Values Rather than Rules 276 277 278 279Routines and Procedures 280 281 282 283Consistency 284 285 286 287Positive Encouragement 288 289 290 291Apologize 292 293 294 295Humor 296 297 298 299Be Yourself 300 301 302 303 304Relationships 305 306 307 308âRelationships first, everything else 309second.â -Kayla (Delzer) Dornfeld @topdogteaching 310 311 312 313This statement could not be more true. 314Once you build relationships, everything else falls into place. In my experience, 315I typically do not have many behavioral issues in my classroom because I work 316hard to establish and maintain relationships and connect with every single kid. 317I get to know my students, their personal lives, hobbies, strengths, 318weaknesses, etc. I show up to sporting events, choir/band concerts, musicals, and 319any other event I am invited to attend. I put their names into word problems 320and plan lessons around activities they enjoy. These small things seem so simple 321but make a world of difference. 322 323 324 325When students feel appreciated, loved, 326and supported in your classroom, they respect you and are more inclined to meet 327your expectations. Now, of course, there are some exceptions to this. I have 328had great relationships with kids who acted out in my classroom from time to 329time. Talk to them, find out the root of the problem, and work with them to remedy 330it. 331 332 333 334Values Rather than Rules 335 336 337 338Ever heard the saying rules are meant 339to be broken? Well, some of our students perceive rules this way. Instead of 340having class rules, I like having class values. It puts a more positive spin on 341rules and blends both rules and values interdependently. 342 343 344 345I believe that words are powerful and research shows that kids will become whatever you tell them they are. If I tell students they are helpful, I have found that they will be more helpful. This, in my opinion, is true for any value. By having a value that states, âIn this classroom, we will help othersâ, Iâm not telling kids what they can or cannot do in a rule form. I am telling them character traits that represent who they are, who they should strive to be, and what is expected from me. Having class values vs. class rules changed the culture and dynamics of my classroom. Create the values together as a class, display them in your classroom, and reference them daily. Grab my Editable Bitmoji Classroom Values. 346 347 348 349 350 351 352 353Routines and Procedures 354 355 356 357In my classroom, there is a routine/procedure for everything and that makes the class run smoothly and efficiently. This allows for fewer opportunities for misbehavior. I only have 44 minutes of instruction time per class period so I am all about maximizing this time. I utilize Google slides to display entering the room procedure. As soon as students walk into my classroom, they know what they can expect to accomplish that day (agenda), what materials they will need for the day, and to begin working on their Bell Ringer. I highly recommend utilizing a Bell Ringer, a warm-up, every day to get students settled, in a routine, and thinking about your subject. Another great option is to have students silent read in place of a Bell Ringer. I am expecting my students to follow the directions on the slide independently. I also set a timer and display it in on my board so all students can monitor their progress over time and it helps hold me accountable if I get distracted or caught up in working with a student. 358 359 360 361 362 363 364 365However, this is not my only procedure. There is a procedure for going to the bathroom, going to the nurse (unless itâs an emergency), transitioning, borrowing a book/ calculator, borrowing other supplies, working in groups, working with partners, etc. I could tell you all of my routines and procedures but you need to develop routines and procedures that make sense to you, your classroom, and your students. 366 367 368 369This year I am using the acronym CHAMPS to ensure students know the expectations for working in terms of how to talk, how to get help, the activity, how to move, how to participate, and how to be successful. Simply put a clothespin or magnet on the expectations of CHAMPS. I am also utilizing routine posters for starting and ending classes. Check out the bundle here! 370 371 372 373 374 375 376 377 378 379Consistency 380 381 382 383Consistency is key. Many students, especially middle schoolers, are creatures of habit. They crave structure and organizational systems that give them a sense of safety and predictability. Middle schoolers are also very intuitive and watch our every move, interaction with students, etc. Be consistent with how you treat students and the plans you put in place for assisting students. If someone gets âs
383pecial treatmentâ, students notice. They see this as unfair and some will most likely act out. In middle school, expectations are black and white; middle schoolers do not see any gray area. Being consistent ensures that all students know your expectations and the consequences for not meeting those expectations. 384 385 386 387Being consistent can sometimes be tough. I have perceived myself to be consistent but then students may point out an instance where I was not. In my quarterly check-ins with students, I will ask if they feel everyone is being treated equally and fairly in my classroom. Constantly re-evaluating your teaching practice is necessary to guarantee that you are being consistent and fair in the eyes of your students. 388 389 390 391Positive Encouragement 392 393 394 395Classroom management cannot consist of just discipline and reprimands; there needs to be positive encouragement. I make it a point every day to give out encouraging notes to my students when I catch them being awesome, persevering through a tough problem, sharing an innovative idea, helping a classmate, crushing a test, etc. I use my encouraging notes to build relationships and community in my classroom. I keep a list and give one to every single student. Once Iâve gone through my entire roster, I reset and continue to give these out all year. 396 397 398 399Recognizing the good in all students can sometimes be tough in just a 44 minute class period. I start with those kids first; you know the ones I am referring to. I purposely seek to find anything awesome that I can praise them for. Building relationships with these kids first will set the tone for the year. If you can hook them in the beginning, it is usually smooth sailing. Students look forward to my notes and itâs an easy way to recognize the positive things going on in your classroom. Grab the Editable Bitmoji Encouraging Notes for Students. 400 401 402 403 404 405 406 407Apologize 408 409 410 411Apologize. This is so important and often overlooked. We all have crappy days where sometimes we take it out on our students without meaning to or really even thinking about it. We all have days where we make mistakes, raise our voices, copy the wrong sheet, spill our coffee on a studentâs test, etc. Put your ego aside and apologize to your kids. They will appreciate you and respect you more for being human, for being real, and for owning your mistakes/faults. Plus, this is an important character trait to model, especially at the middle school level. 412 413 414 415Humor 416 417 418 419Humor is how I survive teaching middle school. Just kidding (coffee too of course). Sometimes, you just have to laugh. I have been told that you can hear my laugh from a different level in the building. Humor is an easy way to capture the attention of your class and generate enthusiasm for a lesson. In my class, I will often tell jokes/puns and when no one in the class laughs, you bet I do. Laughter then becomes contagious. This in itself sparks an interest in the topic and probably convinces my students I am a little crazy (who isnât, right?). You canât be afraid to laugh at yourself and embarrass yourself; itâs a requirement for teaching middle school. 420 421 422 423 424 425 426 427 I remember one of my first years of teaching, I 428was in the front of my classroom teaching, slipped on a slick spot on my newly 429waxed floor, and fell on my butt. My class was mortified, jaws dropped, looking 430like deer in headlights, not sure how to respond. Almost immediately, I began 431cracking up. I reassured my students I was fine and encouraged them to laugh 432with me. I laughed until I cried as I pictured myself falling on my butt; that 433image was on repeat in my brain. 434 435 436 437Note: Be careful using sarcasm in the 438classroom. Depending on the developmental and emotional level of your students, 439they might not understand it. Itâs also easy to spiral out of control. Sarcasm 440and humor can go hand-in-hand and trust me, I use both (at times) but not at 441anyoneâs expense except my own. 442 443 444 445Be Yourself 446 447 448 449Last, but not least, just be yourself! Students can tell when you are not being real and genuine. During my first-ever formal observation (where my math supervisor came to observe me), I turned into a completely different teacher. One of my students approached me after my admin had left and said, âWow, you were totally different with him in the room.â The reality was, I wasnât even aware that I acted differently. Then, I thought about it. I am normally super energetic and moving all over the room, constantly laughing and having fun, and I must have toned it down to âbusiness as usualâ attitude. That is just not my personality or teaching style. My next observation was equally as uncomfortable as the first but I stayed true to myself and my personality, and let that shine in the observation. 450 451 452 453Bring your hobbies, interests, stories, etc. into the classroom. My uncle was a captain of a navy battleship so naturally, during our unit of study with coordinate planes, we played Coordinate Plane Battleship and I showed my students pictures of my uncle and the battleship he commanded. I described his fierce and savage, âdo anything to winâ type of attitude that helped him have a successful c
453areer as he led our country to victory. Students love to hear about our families and our lives outside of school (wait, we have one?). Again, this helps build a repertoire with students and connect with them on a deeper level. 454 455 456 457Concluding Thoughts 458 459 460 461Itâs not easy managing middle schoolers with raging hormones, sassy attitudes, and vulnerable self-esteems but it sure is worth it! The last piece of advice I can offer is to observe other more experienced teachers.

I was so excited to have a classroom to call my own, to teach by myself, to get to know my students and to help them grow as learners, as mathematicians, as writers, and as digital citizens. But, my first year of teaching was rough (I was teaching, coaching water polo, and getting my Masterâs degree) and I remember crying a handful of times. I am a perfectionist, OCD, Type A personality and felt like all the other teachers on my team had better classroom management than I did. In reality, I was just being hard on myself (or so I am told) but thatâs how I felt at the time. </p> 665 666 667 668<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So, letâs talk about classroom management; the 669thing that they donât really teach you how to do in college (at least not when 670I was in school). Classroom management is something that many teachers struggle 671with during their first year of teaching and it can make or break your school year. 672Iâm here to tell you that classroom management does get better! Classroom 673management is something we learn through teaching experience and we, as 674educators, have to be willing and ready to adapt for each particular class and 675child on any given day.</p> 676 677 678 679<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Balance</h2> 680 681 682 683<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Classroom management is all about balance and it has taken me nine years 684to perfect it. I have finally found the balance of humor and fun, confidence 685and established boundaries, and teaching and learning. Below I will share my classroom 686management tips for managing middle schoolers and having a successful school 687year.</p> 688 689 690 691<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Note: The tips I am about to share are what works for me. I know teachers with different classroom management strategies and styles that work wonderfully for them. Use what best fits your personality and your teaching style. The tips I am sharing need to be implemented and reinforced every day, starting on the first day (otherwise May/June will be a nightmare for you and no one wants that). </p> 692 693 694 695<h2 class="wp-block-heading"> <strong>Classroom Management Tips</strong> </h2> 696 697 698 699<ol class="wp-block-list"> 700<li>Relationships</li> 701 702 703 704<li>Values Rather than Rules</li> 705 706 707 708<li>Routines and Procedures</li> 709 710 711 712<li>Consistency </li> 713 714 715 716<li>Positive Encouragement</li> 717 718 719 720<li>Apologize </li> 721 722 723 724<li>Humor </li> 725 726 727 728<li>Be Yourself</li> 729</ol> 730 731 732 733<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Relationships</h3> 734 735 736 737<p class="wp-block-paragraph">âRelationships first, everything else 738second.â -Kayla (Delzer) Dornfeld @topdogteaching</p> 739 740 741 742<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This statement could not be more true. 743Once you build relationships, everything else falls into place. In my experience, 744I typically do not have many behavioral issues in my classroom because I work 745hard to establish and maintain relationships and connect with every single kid. 746I get to know my students, their personal lives, hobbies, strengths, 747weaknesses, etc. I show up to sporting events, choir/band concerts, musicals, and 748any other event I am invited to attend. I put their names into word problems 749and plan lessons around activities they enjoy. These small things seem so simple 750but make a world of difference. </p> 751 752 753 754<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When students feel appreciated, loved, 755and supported in your classroom, they respect you and are more inclined to meet 756your expectations. Now, of course, there are some exceptions to this. I have 757had great relationships with kids who acted out in my classroom from time to 758time. Talk to them, find out the root of the problem, and work with them to remedy 759it. </p> 760 761 762 763<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Values Rather than Rules</strong> </h3> 764 765 766 767<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ever heard the saying rules are meant 768to be broken? Well, some of our students perceive rules this way. Instead of 769having class rules, I like having class values. It puts a more positive spin on 770rules and blends both rules and values interdependently. </p> 771 772 773 774<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I believe that words are powerful and research shows that kids will become whatever you tell them they are. If I tell students they are helpful, I have found that they will be more helpful. This, in my opinion, is true for any value. By having a value that states, âIn this classroom, we will help othersâ, Iâm not telling kids what they can or cannot do in a rule form. I am telling them character traits that represent who they are, who they should strive to be, and what is expected from me. Having class values vs. class rules changed the culture and dynamics of my classroom. Create the values together as a class, display them in your classroom, and reference them daily.

786ntly. This allows for fewer opportunities for misbehavior. I only have 44 minutes of instruction time per class period so I am all about maximizing this time. I utilize Google slides to display entering the room procedure. As soon as students walk into my classroom, they know what they can expect to accomplish that day (agenda), what materials they will need for the day, and to begin working on their Bell Ringer. I highly recommend utilizing a Bell Ringer, a warm-up, every day to get students settled, in a routine, and thinking about your subject. Another great option is to have students silent read in place of a Bell Ringer. I am expecting my students to follow the directions on the slide independently. I also set a timer and display it in on my board so all students can monitor their progress over time and it helps hold me accountable if I get distracted or caught up in working with a student. </p> 787 788 789<div class="wp-block-image"> 790<figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" width="512" height="384" src="http://sixthgradeteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Slide1.png" alt="" class="wp-image-160" srcset="https://jamiemillermath.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Slide1.png 512w, https://jamiemillermath.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Slide1-300x225.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px" /></figure> 791</div> 792 793 794<p class="wp-block-paragraph">However, this is not my only procedure. There is a procedure for going to the bathroom, going to the nurse (unless itâs an emergency), transitioning, borrowing a book/ calculator, borrowing other supplies, working in groups, working with partners, etc. I could tell you all of my routines and procedures but you need to develop routines and procedures that make sense to you, your classroom, and your students. </p> 795 796 797 798<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This year I am using the acronym CHAMPS to ensure students know the expectations for working in terms of how to talk, how to get help, the activity, how to move, how to participate, and how to be successful. Simply put a clothespin or magnet on the expectations of CHAMPS. I am also utilizing routine posters for starting and ending classes.

Many students, especially middle schoolers, are creatures of habit. They crave structure and organizational systems that give them a sense of safety and predictability. Middle schoolers are also very intuitive and watch our every move, interaction with students, etc. Be consistent with how you treat students and the plans you put in place for assisting students. If someone gets âspecial treatmentâ, students notice. They see this as unfair and some will most likely act out. In middle school, expectations are black and white; middle schoolers do not see any gray area. Being consistent ensures that all students know your expectations and the consequences for not meeting those expectations.</p> 813 814 815 816<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Being consistent can sometimes be tough. I have perceived myself to be consistent but then students may point out an instance where I was not. In my quarterly check-ins with students, I will ask if they feel everyone is being treated equally and fairly in my classroom. Constantly re-evaluating your teaching practice is necessary to guarantee that you are being consistent and fair in the eyes of your students. </p> 817 818 819 820<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Positive Encouragement</strong> </h3> 821 822 823 824<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Classroom management cannot consist of just discipline and reprimands; there needs to be positive encouragement. I make it a point every day to give out encouraging notes to my students when I catch them being awesome, persevering through a tough problem, sharing an innovative idea, helping a classmate, crushing a test, etc. I use my encouraging notes to build relationships and community in my classroom. I keep a list and give one to every single student. Once Iâve gone through my entire roster, I reset and continue to give these out all year. </p> 825 826 827 828<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Recognizing the good in all students can sometimes be tough in just a 44 minute class period. I start with those kids first; you know the ones I am referring to. I purposely seek to find anything awesome that I can praise them for. Building relationships with these kids first will set the tone for the year. If you can hook them in the beginning, it is usually smooth sailing. Students look forward to my notes and itâs an easy way to recognize the positive things going on in your classroom.

This is so important and often overlooked. We all have crappy days where sometimes we take it out on our students without meaning to or really even thinking about it. We all have days where we make mistakes, raise our voices, copy the wrong sheet, spill our coffee on a studentâs test, etc. Put your ego aside and apologize to your kids. They will appreciate you and respect you more for being human, for being real, and for owning your mistakes/faults. Plus, this is an important character trait to model, especially at the middle school level. </p> 841 842 843 844<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Humor</h3> 845 846 847 848<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Humor is how I survive teaching middle school. Just kidding (coffee too of course). Sometimes, you just have to laugh. I have been told that you can hear my laugh from a different level in the building. Humor is an easy way to capture the attention of your class and generate enthusiasm for a lesson. In my class, I will often tell jokes/puns and when no one in the class laughs, you bet I do. Laughter then becomes contagious. This in itself sparks an interest in the topic and probably convinces my students I am a little crazy (who isnât, right?). You canât be afraid to laugh at yourself and embarrass yourself; itâs a requirement for teaching middle school. </p> 849 850 851 852<figure class="wp-block-image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="819" height="1024" src="http://sixthgradeteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pun-819x1024.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-162" srcset="https://jamiemillermath.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pun-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https://jamiemillermath.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pun-240x300.jpeg 240w, https://jamiemillermath.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pun-768x960.jpeg 768w, https://jamiemillermath.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pun-1140x1425.jpeg 1140w, https://jamiemillermath.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pun.jpeg 1440w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px" /></figure> 853 854 855 856<p class="wp-block-paragraph"> I remember one of my first years of teaching, I 857was in the front of my classroom teaching, slipped on a slick spot on my newly 858waxed floor, and fell on my butt. My class was mortified, jaws dropped, looking 859like deer in headlights, not sure how to respond. Almost immediately, I began 860cracking up. I reassured my students I was fine and encouraged them to laugh 861with me. I laughed until I cried as I pictured myself falling on my butt; that 862image was on repeat in my brain. </p> 863 864 865 866<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Note: Be careful using sarcasm in the 867classroom. Depending on the developmental and emotional level of your students, 868they might not understand it. Itâs also easy to spiral out of control. Sarcasm 869and humor can go hand-in-hand and trust me, I use both (at times) but not at 870anyoneâs expense except my own. </p> 871 872 873 874<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Be Yourself</h3> 875 876 877 878<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Last, but not least, just be yourself! Students can tell when you are not being real and genuine. During my first-ever formal observation (where my math supervisor came to observe me), I turned into a completely different teacher. One of my students approached me after my admin had left and said, âWow, you were totally different with him in the room.â The reality was, I wasnât even aware that I acted differently. Then, I thought about it. I am normally super energetic and moving all over the room, constantly laughing and having fun, and I must have toned it down to âbusiness as usualâ attitude. That is just not my personality or teaching style. My next observation was equally as uncomfortable as the first but I stayed true to myself and my personality, and let that shine in the observation.</p> 879 880 881 882<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Bring your hobbies, interests, stories, etc. into the classroom. My uncle was a captain of a navy battleship so naturally, during our unit of study with coordinate planes, we played Coordinate Plane Battleship and I showed my students pictures of my uncle and the battleship he commanded. I described his fierce and savage, âdo anything to winâ type of attitude that helped him have a successful c

Again, this helps build a repertoire with students and connect with them on a deeper level. </p> 883 884 885 886<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Concluding Thoughts</h2> 887 888 889 890<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Itâs not easy managing middle schoolers with raging hormones, sassy attitudes, and vulnerable self-esteems but it sure is worth it! The last piece of advice I can offer is to observe other more experienced teachers. Sit in on a class and take notes about how they manage procedures and routines, manage transition times, interact with students, etc. Then, adapt what you loved to fit the unique needs of your students, your classroom, and stay true to yourself. Hopefully, you will find these classroom management tips useful.
