Description

Acclaimed educational speaker Harry K. Wong recreates his "classroom" on the first days of school in this classic video lecture. Presented with warmth, humor, and enthusiasm, Dr. Wong explains that what you do the first day of school and for the first 2 to 3 weeks are critical in determining how well students will achieve for the remainder of the school year. Research has identified 28 factors that help students to learn. Ranked number one is classroom management; how a teacher runs the classroom will determine whether students will be successful or not. Effective teachers teach students the procedures of how to start each school day from the moment they enter the classroom. They also implement what is learned through research. Douglas Brooks identifies seven things all students want to know on the first day of school. Use this information to ensure a smooth and successful beginning of any school year?
