from The Motivated Classroom · host Dr. Liam Printer

Principle Six of Six for a Motivated Year in the 'Back to School' series:Principle 6: Secure attention and running routinesThe final episode in our six part series of principles for a motivated language classroom. In this last principle we focus on running routines in class and how we secure attention. I take you through my favourite and most used classroom routines, why they work well in my context and how it actually looks in the classroom. A highly practical episode with plenty of ideas to take away, adapt and apply in a context-appropriate way in your own lessons.I hope you have enjoyed these six episodes and that you will support the podcast, and share widely!Full programme notes are available on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.liamprinter.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Keep in touch and share!Follow The Motivated Classroom on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@themotivatedclassroom⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and Facebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@themotivatedclassroom⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.I'd love to know what you think, please get in touch!
