Semester 4: Blog #2

What is something you want to change about your classroom management? 
I think the number one thing that I need to work on is being consistent with my classroom management.  I need to make sure that if I give one student a consequence for a certain action, that I give out that same consequence if another student does the same action.  I have noticed in the pass that sometimes students will say "well so and so did the same thing and they didn't get in trouble." Sometimes I realize that the student is accurate with their accusation, so I need to make sure that I am more consistent. In order to do this I need to make sure that students are very aware of what my policies and expectations are in the classroom.  Furthermore, I need to make sure that I stick to whatever classroom management system I have put in place.  If I say that a student gets a detention if they have their cell phone out, that means that any student who has their cell phone out, even if it is someone who never gets in trouble, receives a detention.
