There will be a lot of people who disagree with me-and that is okay. Different things work for different teachers. This is how I establish authority and style in my classroom. The number one way to catch and maintain authority in the classroom-is to prank the students on the first day of class. Now, hear me out. I've tried it your way.  "Hi, I'm your teacher for Intermediate Algebra this semester. Please take a syllabus and pass the rest back. I expect you to read this in your own time. Lesson 1...." Three minutes into it and they start asking if I really am the teacher. "Are you old enough to teach this class?" Nope. I'm not doing it that way again. I let 'em sit there. It's 8:55 and the teacher isn't here yet. It's 8:59 and the teacher isn't here yet.

AuthorHi! I'm CoScine. I write chemistry worksheets for visual learners. They are fun, easy to follow, and most of them are quick to grade. Since I started my teaching career at the college level, these aren't just simple chemistry. These worksheets are hard core science made fun. Archives
