sometimes its hard to memorize students name speacialy if the class is big so here some ideas you can do

the more fully occupied the students are during the class the more likely they are foucesd and work well.

to keep classroom discipline you have to

4.use games .

Slide 12 - Slide

4.catch problems as they start
dont ignore minor discipline problems thinking they'll go away by themselves.they usually wont .

Slide 13 - Slide

for example
if you think it is not a big deal for two class mates to chat in class and you think they will quiet down on their own will you are wrong becuase penny learnd it the hard way she used to think that they hopefully would stop talking and becuase of that behaviour day by day it led to a loud noise and wont take the teacher seriously

Slide 14 - Slide

so the key is to react quickly as soon you notice the problem or the conversation that has been going on.
and you can stop it by 
an eye contact or by stopping and waiting ,with a hand gesture ,or ask them a quick request in order to keep them busy

Slide 15 - Slide

5.avoid confrontations
try not to get into public confrontations in class with a student or group of students who are creating problems.it can waste a lot of valuable lesson time and rarely leads to good solutions

Slide 16 - Slide

to avoide confrontations
1.set up a time to meet them privately and sourt out the problem without an audience.
if it is a big group or the whole class issue there are 3 options 
1.insist immediately and firmly on what you've decided and move on.

Slide 17 - Slide

2.give in, if you think they may be right .you wont lose a face so you can agree with them but dont do it to often 
3.postpone . tell them you dont want to discuss it now  but return to the problem in the next lesson that way the students will have calmed down and more ready to listen to you

Slide 18 - Slide

as well you would have had time to think about how you should solve the problem 

Slide 19 - Slide

compliment good behaviour
by the nature of things our attention is drawn to bad or unacceptable behaviour and we dont tend to notice when students are working quietly or cooperatively ,but we should

Slide 20 - Slide

instead of foucsing on chaty students or who play with their phones during the lesson we should look to the good side of the class and be aware of the good students who pay attention or even dont make a noise 

Slide 21 - Slide

by a verbal comment at the moment or at the end of the lesson another possiblities is to send an email or a note to the students themselves or even to their parents as well it is important to complement students who do not do well as a sgin of encourgment
