In Chapter 1 of Surviving The Zombie Apocalypse OR The First Year of Teaching, the hilarious author, Dr. Chris Haskell discusses the rules to "setting yourself up for success" so to speak. The first step is to create a vision; a clear idea what you expect your class to feel like, what you want to accomplish and how you will accomplish it. It's a good idea to make sure the parents and school principal are on board with your "vision", and that your vision is written down. In further guiding the creation of your vision, Haskall advises the consideration of the look, feel, and presence (how everyone interacts within the classroom, and to what degree) of the class. These and other considerations are discussed (teaching style, goals/objectives, etc.) - and again advised by Haskall to be written down, posted in the classroom, and even distributed. This vision can then be referred back to and modified with time.
