2. The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter. Children are now tyrants. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up their food, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.
Socrates (469–399 B.C.)

7. Ripple Effect
When you correct the misbehaviour of one student, it can positively influence the behaviour of another

8. ‘With-it-ness’
Awareness of what is going on in all parts of the classroom
Good teachers have eyes on the back of their heads! Do you have them?
Classroom layout benefits the teachers ability to see all students at all times

9. Overlapping Good teachers are good jugglers!
When teachers can effectively tend to two or more events simultaneously
Students are more likely to stay on task if they know that the teacher is aware of what they are doing (body language)

10. Movement Management Smoothness: Smooth transitions between activities
Momentum:
Appropriate pace and progression through a lesson
Group Focus and Accountability:
Keep the whole class involved and interested

11. As teachers we should try to avoid ….
Dangling:
Teacher leaves a topic and introduces new, unrelated material
Flip-flop:
like dangling, except that the teacher inserts left-over materials from a previous lesson

12. Thrust:
teacher forgets to give clear instructions at the appropriate time of a lesson.
Teacher must then re-explain the instructions to each student on an individual level
Stimulus-bound:
Teacher is distracted by an outside stimulus and draws the class’s attention to it
