Establish a Classroom Routine
Sample lesson plans and classroom activities are described in more detail in section 12. CTE instructor materials may be downloaded from the Texas CTE Resources Center website.
Follow All School Policies
During orientation at the beginning of the school year, make students aware of classroom rules and regulations, as well as the consequences for not following the rules.
Many instructors like to have students sign a Student Code of Conduct agreement verifying that they understand the rules and promise to follow them.
Texas Education Agency (TEA) recommends that the rules be posted at all times. Enforcement of all rules must be done equally to all students in all classes.
