ABSTRACT
Classroom management is a major concern to educators but especially to preservice teachers. For students to learn, a classroom needs to be a site where you can complete your work with relatively little or no interruption. Accomplishing this goal requires teachers to understand that classroom management involves more than posting a list of rules and consequences on a classroom wall. In this chapter, you will learn that establishing a positive classroom setting is the result of a teacher’s ability to implement the three phases of classroom management: prevention, intervention, and the managing of chronically disruptive students.
