Classroom Management- Month 5 (Constant Tardiness and Absenteeism)

Season 2 Episode 10

Join me in this year-long series on classroom management. Each month, we will look at tips and tricks for creating a better classroom management plan.  This is the fifth in the series, with a focus on constant tardiness and absenteeism.

You know how it is. You plan your lessons. You get to school early so that you are prepared for the day. You grade on the weekend to be sure you can give effective and timely feedback. And then…kids are constantly late and absent, undoing everything you tried to accomplish. Listen here for tips on how to handle constant tardiness and absenteeism.

We will discuss:

  • Getting parents on board
  • Having a classroom system for absent students
  • Clear consequences for being late
  • Help from Admin
  • Teacher/student meetings

Let's connect!
