How to Use Daily Routines in Shubert’s Classroom

The brain is a pattern-seeking device. If a classroom lacks clear routines and visual representations of them, students’ brains are preoccupied with trying to find the pattern rather than with learning. The more consistent and clearly represented your daily routines are, the more safely, smoothly and cooperatively your classroom will run.

Routines are the skeleton that supports a Conscious Discipline classroom. Every routine from the daily schedule, to lining up, to “what to do when you’re finished with your work” must be simply stated in pictures and words, and posted throughout the classroom where those routines occur.

The Creating the School Family book devotes an entire chapter to creating routines, posting them visually and supporting them with related activities. The Daily Routine Cards help organize your daily classroom schedule and represent it visually. You will want to photograph and label the components of other routines and post them in the necessary places. For example, photograph your lining up routine and post it by the door. Music that supports daily routines includes “Skip Count” and “I Gotta Go” on Brain Boogie Boosters.
