Classroom Management

          In my opinion, classroom management is an intellectual skill that is based on knowledge about action and situation relationships in the classrooms. Why? Because when the teacher teaches in the classroom, they should know how to manage the classroom well, how make their students achieve the goals from the learning, how to make a grouping, etc. So that is why, classroom management is one of a weapon that important for the teachers. In order to be an effective educator, the teacher should have quality classroom management skills. This classroom knowledge enables a teacher to recognize and interpret what is happening in an exceptionally complex environment. These knowledge structures developed through direct instruction in prepositional knowledge about classrooms.

When I conducted SEP in SMA Bellarminus Jakarta, in the first time I taught X2-Class, it was out of control. I mean because I was a newbie there, so they were noisy. Fortunately, it happened only 15 minutes in the first of teaching and learning process, so further they were calmer and obedient. Why they were calmer and obedient? Because I gave them a various activities that their teacher never has gave to them, so they felt so excited. So, these is one of example about how to manage my classroom in order that my students involved actively in all my activities.
