3 Classroom procedures: Health warning: You can’t deliver long instructions for every single classroom procedure (and you shouldn’t have to!) Organisational and administrative parts of the school day Unavoidable but add nothing to academic learning and can waste a huge amount of time and energy Like classroom rules, procedures are most effective when implemented in discussion with students

4 Time management strategies for teachers http://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/Finding-Documents-Organising- Students-Giving-Instructions-6084418/

Extrinsic motivation: motivation that comes from outside of the individual. Common extrinsic motivations are rewards like money and grades, coercion and threat of punishment. Wikipedia
