55 14 DOMAIN 2: Classroom Environment COMPONENT 2D: Managing Student Behavior Expectations The student teacher establishes equitable standards of conduct and uses preventative measures to reinforce positive behavior and PK-12 student interactions. Exemplary • The student teacher has established equitable standards of conduct with input from students; student behavior is entirely appropriate. • The student teacher uses preventative measures to monitor student behavior and uses positive behavior reinforcement; response to misbehavior is sensitive to individual student needs and respects students’ dignity. • Students respectfully intervene with classmates, as appropriate, to ensure compliance with standards of conduct. Expected • The student teacher has established standards of conduct with little, if any, incidences of student misbehavior. • The student teacher monitors student behavior against established standards of conduct; response is consistent, proportionate, and effective. Emergent • The student teacher attempts to maintain order in the classroom but with uneven success; standards of conduct are not evident. • There is minimal evidence of ongoing monitoring of student behavior. • The student teacher’s response to student misbehavior is inconsistent, with little effort at positive behavior reinforcement. Unsatisfactory • The classroom environment is chaotic, with no standards of conduct. • The student teacher does not monitor student behavior. • The student teacher ignores student behavior, with little or no response to either positive or inappropriate behavior. Not Observed Discussion Prompts: • Describe your established standards of conduct for both physical and virtual spaces. • What strategies do you use to monitor student behavior in an ongoing manner? • How would you describe overall student behavior? • What behavior strategies do you use to reward positive behavior? • What behavioral challenges most often occur? What are your most successful responses to student misbehavior? Evidence of Practice: • Classroom standards posted • Awareness of student conduct/behavior • Non-verbal behavioral management techniques • Positive behavioral supports • Reinforcement of positive behavior • Response to misbehavior 14
