Based on recent walk through data we are moving ahead to Chapter 8.
Chapter 8: Implementing Rules and Procedures
"Part of a mental set conducive to learning is the perception that the classroom environment is orderly and safe. The teacher fosters such a perception through well-articulated rules and procedures. The desired mental states and processes for this design area are:
Students understand and follow rules and procedures.
Element 33: Establishing Rules and Procedures The initiating element for this design area is establishing rules and procedures. This, of course, typically occurs at the beginning of the year, although teachers should make adaptations regarding rules and procedures throughout the year.
Element 34: Organizing the Physical Layout of the Classroom Some teachers overlook the classroom's physical layout while others pay a great deal of attention to this element. The latter position is the more desirable of the two because the classroom's physical layout and appearance can enhance or hinder students' perceptions of order. Strategies associated with the physical layout address decorations, materials, and areas for instruction as well as the ease with which teachers can monitor what is occurring."
