Abstract:
The need for effective classroom management in education process cannot be over emphasised.
To achieve this, there must be adequate planning, which is a continuous process for any projected course
of action with the most efficient means. This paper identifies and discusses the steps involved in planning
the daily work of a teacher, which is the pre-teaching phase of the curriculum. It is suggested that the
classroom manager should not be rigid in following the lesson plan religiously because inevitable
circumstances may interrupt the lesson. To ensure adequate planning for the daily work toward effective
classroom management, conscientious, qualified and well motivated teachers should be encouraged in
the school system.
