__**Do's**__ http://www.teachingchannel.org/videos/ask-3-then-me?fd=0
 * 1. Ask Three then Me**: if a student does not understand the directions then they ask three students what to do and then ask the teacher if the students do not help


 * 2. Daily Schedule**: put the schedule for the day or period on the board or somewhere where the students can see it

 * 3. Using Good Body Language**: it helps to hook the students into the lesson


 * 4. Start teaching/get the class working immediately:** the best time is the first ten minutes of the class and the last ten, do not waste that time and teach the most important concepts during that time


 * 5. Be consistent:** enforce your rules consistently and fairly, do not allow a certain behavior one day and then the next day punish the student for the same behavior, the students will lose respect for you

__**Don'ts**__
 * 1. Don't make more than three rules**: keep it simple


 * 2. Don't hold a childs explanation against them**: there should be a consequence at the time of the behavior but do not hold it against them, make sure that the student understands that you are displeased with the behavior and not them


 * 3. Don't sweat the small stuff and quit looking for what the student did wrong**: if you stress over every misbehavior that occurs, there is a good chance that the student will "turn off" or hold a grudge against you. (think about how your response will help/hurt in the long run)


 * 4. Don't raise your voice and stay calm:** if they are out of control and yelling then the louder you will get, the louder they will get

 * 5. Make a positive contact with the parent or guardian:** (do so early in the year before any problems arise) Having constant communication with parents makes it easier to confront them about a discipline problem involving their child

This video applies to consistency and start teaching/working immediately: []
