Students start talking before you finish giving instructions. What can you say?
Not yet. Listen first then you will start. / Wait for the signal. I will tell you when to start. / Pause. Eyes on me. Instructions first speaking after.
The class is noisy after pair work. You need to get their attention calmly. What can you say?
Pause. Look this way. Thank you. / Stop there. Pens down. Eyes on me. / I need everyone’s attention for one minute.
Students are working in groups but the noise level is too high. What can you say?
Lower your voices please. / Use group voices not playground voices. / Continue the task but more quietly. / I need the noise level down so everyone can think.
