Take a Look My favorite classroom management tip is to start my day by reading with the kids. I read for 10 to 15 minutes, and then I let the kids read for an equal amount of time, whether it's for poetry, a biography, a story, or anything they choose. We often read a good deal of our curriculum, and I like to let the kids know it's okay to read something they don't like. They can choose their own, and I can choose something for them to read. It really helps them develop a comfort level with reading. Take a Look My favorite classroom management tip is to start my day by reading with the kids.
