class room preparation
its always better when you have everything prepared and organize before entering your classroom
Lloyd,
This kind of prep sets the tone and actually can contribute to providing a better learning environment. Students need guidance and direction -- and a clean, organized classroom plays a part in creating that.

This is my most important one to get the class off on the right direction chairs in good shape room clean with no clutter boards clean material ready for the first day.
Kelley,
Yes, good preparation demonstrates readiness, competence, and confidence in ourselves and in the course work we are providing.

Being prepared has a calming effect and makes for clear thinking. You are more able to monitor your class and teach without thinking/worrying "what is next" or "do I have enough of these", etc
