One simple classroom management strategy you can start using tomorrow? An explicit feedback system.
In his live model lesson at GYTO Fest, Andre Deshotel shared how he uses the Scoreboard Game to give students immediate feedback on what’s working and what needs to change.
Here’s the part that surprises most teachers: the first time they play, the students don’t win.
That’s intentional.
The goal isn’t to “beat” the teacher. It’s to teach students the routines, expectations, and habits that lead to success. As they learn to work together, push through challenges, and celebrate growth as a class, those systems become part of your classroom culture.
