A kid is standing on his chair. Twenty-five heads swivel toward you like owls. Everyone wants to know what happens next, including you, because your brain has packed up and gone to recess without asking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThat moment is what this course is about: the three seconds where you’re supposed to “do something”, the part your degree skipped and every PD session waved at from a safe distance. Theory has its place, but this is about what you actually say and do while a real child pushes back in a real room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt’s built on simple methods I pieced together over 12 years teaching Prep to Year 6, starting as a 21-year-old grad who had no idea what she was doing. They work whether your kids are 4 or 12, and you won’t need a reward chart, a points system or a single gold star.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe bit nobody showed you\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eOn prac, your mentor teacher’s class just... worked. Kids lined up. Kids put their hands up. What you never saw were the routines and expectations she set up in Week 1, long before you walked in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThen you get your own room, shut the door, and a child refuses to do any work. You hesitate. You react. On the drive home you replay it, trying to work out what you should have said.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eYou aren’t bad at teaching.
