The Teacher’s Strategies
47
The first strategy was giving a rule. The teacher gave the rule at the first
time when he entered the class 2 PL 2 in second observation. The teacher explained that the students of class 2 PL 2 were different from students of class 2
PL 4. They were more noise. …making an agreement, if they make noise, the students will clean the
yard of school, and stay in classroom. Mister will give a punishment. The p
unishment is writing “I am a good student” in one full of sheet…. - TR …membuat perjanjian kalau membuat keributan maka anak-anak harus
piket diluar kelas, membersihkan halaman sama tinggal dikelas bersama mister. Mister memberi hukuman menulis dibuku,
I am a good student satu lembar penuh....

the teacher also gave a rule. The students who were noisy and not ready to learn had to go to the library. Those rules were effective to control the students at that
time.
The second strategy was giving motivation. The teacher controlled the
students’ work by motivating them. The teacher asked the students to finish their work, and made no noise. If the students were noisy, they would not finish the
work. At that time, when the second observation was conducted, there were students who did not finish their work, and the time was up. The teacher asked the
students to finish their work first, and then went home. Yet, two of them cried. The teacher gave the motivation, and spirit to them, and helped to finish their
work. …I did not run any pre-school program PAUD or event taught in pre-
school program. I don’t know. I only said, “Come on be spirited. Your mothers are still waiting f
or you”…. - TR

apa mamanya masih menunggu… Interview 2
The last strategy
was using body language and voice. The teacher used body language to get the students’ attention. Such as, the teacher put the finger on
his lips, and the teacher counted one up to three while showed his finger. Meanwhile, the teacher used the quality of voice. Actually, he was angry but he
tried not to expose his anger to the students. He used smooth voice like a child to admonish the students who did misbehaviors in classroom.
“…my tone was not angry but it like resembled voice of children. For example, if you were noisy, you would not take a rest….” - TR
