Well-managed classrooms allow teaching and learning to flourish. But creating an ideal learning environment for your students is multifaceted, and often challenging — so much so that many teachers name classroom management as one of their most difficult tasks.

This month's featured resource offers 25 techniques to help you diversify your classroom management skills, and trigger positive reactions from your students. Which one will work best for you?

We believe that effective professional development bridges theory and practice, and not only promotes critical reflection, but also the implementation and application of learning as a way to refine your teaching. 

Our featured resource offers an effective sequence for professional development that allows educators to engage in a cycle of learning, applying, reflecting, and sharing (also known as LARS.). This tool can be used by administrators and school leaders to support educators in implementing specific strategies, concepts, or techniques into their practice. The LARS method can help create a powerful learning community in which educators are able to learn with and from one another and establish best practices that can be shared across classrooms.

As election month approaches, it's a fitting time to examine the political and social issues that affect our students most. How can you explore these themes in your classroom? Download our featured resource, which offers a guide to teaching in the current political climate, including protocols and practices educators can use to create safe spaces for students as they consider their perspectives and investigate the influences that shape their lives.
