Routines are the backbone of daily classroom life. They facilitate teaching and learning. Rules and routines keep your class running smoothly so that students have time to learn and achieve more. Routines and procedures have to be taught, modeled, reviewed and reinforced so that children know what’s expected of them and how to do certain things on their own. Having these predictable patterns in place allows teachers to spend more time in meaningful instruction.
