How To Create A Comfortable and Safe Classroom Climate?


Classroom is considered the students' second home, so as teachers we should create a comfortable and safe classroom climate and this can be done in several ways. 

• Acknowledging students: teachers should pay attention to the small details concerning students. They should tell them that " I see you" or " I hear you in my classroom". They should also greet their students and welcome them whenever they come from long vacation or weekend.
• Communicating Values: in both personal and academic levels. Teachers should show interests to their students throughout knowing their names, listening to them whenever they need to talk, fulfill their interests and needs concerning the activities they bring to them. Also, they should have high expectations concerning their achievement.
• Treat them equally: Teachers shouldn't ignore some students and focus on others. They should treat all students on equal basis in order for them all to stay motivated and able to achieve and be productive. Unless, students will be demotivated. 
• Be real in front of them: teachers should act in real way in front of their students because students should see that teacher is a real person like them, eat in front of them, laugh with them, and talk to them. In this way they will belong more to the classroom.
• Respect students: All teachers want their students to respect them, thus to do that they should also respect their students. If you want your students to tell you " thank you" you should in return tell them thank you whenever they do something or give her something or respond to any question.

Yes, they are simple steps but these steps will have the greatest impact on students.
