Teaching Young Learners – Introduction
The
seven Rs provide an integrated framework for managing children
positively and creating a happy working environment:
Relationships - creating
and maintaining a positive relationship with learners is at the heart of
establishing a happy learning environment.
Rules - establish
a limited number of rules and make sure they are clear, as well as the reasons
for having them.
Routines - classroom
routines make it clear to everyone
what is expected of them and what they should do.
Rights and Responsibilities - although these may not be stated explicitly with very young learners,
teachers can model through their own actions which of these they value.
Respect - students
who are treated respectfully by the
teacher will respond in a similar way to the teacher. If the children feel that
the teacher treats them as individuals, they will also respond to the teacher
as an individual and not with a collective group mentality.
Rewards - reward
systems can be an effective way of reinforcing
appropriate behaviour e.g. using stars, stickers, points, smiley faces, raffle
tickets or marbles in a jar.
