    This document discusses managing classroom structure and activities. It explains that classroom structure refers to the physical arrangement of furniture and equipment to maximize learning. Classroom activities should involve discovery learning, hands-on activities, and meaningful exploration to lead to full understanding of concepts. The example provided is of a teacher who arranged her classroom like a racetrack to teach a lesson on speed, distance, and time in an engaging way for students. Suggestions are made to set clear expectations for activities, maximize the use of school facilities, carefully choose meaningful activities, manage time well, and prioritize safety.

    LEARNING
    ENVIRONMENT

    PPST 2.3.2
    CLASSROOM
    STRUCTURE
    This refers to the physical set-up of
    the learning environment, which generally includes
    the arrangement
    of chairs, tables, and other equipment in the
    classroom designed to
    maximize learning.
    CLASSROOM
    ACTIVITIES
    These are activities that the teacher
    intends
    to use based on the lesson objectives which
    can be:
    -require learners to draw on
    their past and existing DISCOVERY
    knowledge to discover facts,
    relationships, LEARNING
    and new knowledge to be
    learned.
    ACTIVITIES
    -require physical HANDS-ON
    participation of
    learners to construct,
    LEARNING
    consolidate or explain ACTIVITIES
    concepts.
    - leads to learners’ full
    understanding MEANINGFU
    of concepts and how they L
    relate to other concepts.
    EXPLORATIO
    N
    Teacher Adz is a sixth grade Math teacher. Though she

    handles large classes, she makes it a point to prepare her

    classroom based on the activities that she prepared for the

    REFLECT! day. To highlight her competency on managing classroom

    structure and activities, she prepared her Math 6 lesson on

    What can you say about the strategy calculating speed, distance and time, and then turned her

    used by Teacher Adz? classroom into a racing area with multiple racetracks to

    ensure understanding of the concept of speed.


    SET CLEAR EXPECTATIONS
    Before starting any activity, we
    SUGGESTIONS
    may set clear
    FOR
    expectations on how learners
    IMPROVEMEN
    should perform the activity.
    T
    MAXIMIZE THE USE OF SCHOOL
    FACILITIES

    SUGGESTIONS
    We may opt to restructure the classroom for it to

    become more appropriate for the activities but if we feel the

    need for a wider or more flexible space, we may also choose FOR
    from a range of other physical learning environments. We
    IMPROVEMEN
    may use the school covered court, the stage, the school

    garden, under the shade of a big tree or any other area away
    T
    from the four corners of the classroom .
    BE CAREFUL IN CHOOSING THE
    ACTIVITIES
    There may be different learning activities
    SUGGESTIONS
    for a particular lesson so we have to carefully
    select those which will give meaningful
    FOR
    experiences to our learners. Learning IMPROVEMEN
    activities which engage and lead learners to T
    discovery and manipulations are encouraged.
    BE CONSCIOUS ABOUT TIME

    Time
    managing
    plays an
    classroom
    important role
    structure
    in
    and
    SUGGESTIONS
    activities. We may establish routines to
    FOR
    go seamlessly from one activity to the IMPROVEMEN
    next so as to avoid disruptions and time T
    stealers.
    MAKE SAFETY A PRIORITY

    In the conduct of the varied


    activities in any physical learning
    SUGGESTIONS
    environment that we prefer to use, FOR
    we have to make sure that we and IMPROVEMEN
    our learners are safe while making T
    learning meaningful and fun.
    ILLUSTRATION OF
    PRACTICE
    LET’S Managing Classroom
    DISCUSS! Structure
    Based on Activities
    A classroom with a well-managed structure and activities is a
    task-oriented and predictable
    environment. When we say ‘classroom’, we do not limit
    ourselves to the four walls of the room.
    It can be in any place in school or outside the school where
    we think the learners can engage
    in meaningful explorations, discoveries and hands-on
    activities.
    As teachers, we set up our classroom in such a way that it
    facilitates learning
    while considering our own safety and, of course, the welfare
    of the learners under our care. We
    have our set of routines and procedures which are the tools
    we use for a smooth flow of the
    lesson. We maximize our time with our learners by coming
    up with well-planned, well thought- through activities
    THANK YOU
    I hope you can get helpful knowledge from
    this presentation. Good luck!
