AAbstract
Classroom management is a critical component of effective teaching, as it creates an environment conducive to learning and active participation. This study examined classroom management practices employed by elementary teachers and their influence on learner engagement. Specifically, it identified commonly used classroom management practices, determined the level of learner engagement, and examined the relationship between classroom management practices and learner engagement.
The study employed a descriptive-correlational research design and was conducted in selected public elementary schools. Data were collected using a survey questionnaire administered to elementary teachers and a learner engagement checklist accomplished through classroom observations. Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, and mean were used to describe classroom management practices and learner engagement, while Pearson’s correlation coefficient was utilized to determine the relationship between the variables.
Findings revealed that teachers frequently employed positive classroom management practices such as establishing clear rules, consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and proactive behavior management. Learner engagement was found to be at a high level, particularly in classrooms where positive and structured management strategies were consistently applied. Results further indicated a significant relationship between classroom management practices and learner engagement. The study concludes that effective classroom management significantly enhances learner engagement and supports meaningful learning experiences in elementary classrooms.
