Welcome to your mini training series all about ROUTINES. In this season we are getting GRANULAR on what we were never actually taught but has a significant impact to the start of the year and classroom management ALL YEAR LONG.

 In this episode, the Besties discuss the importance of establishing effective classroom routines to create a structured and anxiety-free environment for students. We reflect on our own first-day classroom experiences, emphasise the significance of predictability for children, and cite research from experts like Dr. Daniel Siegel and Dr. Becky. We also introduce a framework for teaching routines, known as the four/five Ps: Plan, Precision, Practice, Perfect, and Probe. The episode concludes with tips on iterating and adapting routines, ensuring inclusivity, and using interactive methods to engage students.
