Its very important to manage behavior in the class because if the class was
full of misbehavior students it will full of bad attention ,the students will be
rude ,mess will fill the class room and the good students will be oppressed.
The most important thing that the teacher is the model of the class because
students like to copy teachers and theyll remember her for the rest of their
lives .
The easiest classroom management is (smiling) because its an easy thing to
do and it from my religion as prophet Mohammad said ( smile on your
brothers / sisters face is a charity),
And the hard one is to praise students because Im not good in praising .
My MST is very good in cuing system to gain control of the classroom.
