In order to have good behaviour in the classroom,\u00a0 requires tactfulness, good communication, management skills, guidance, inspirational and the ability to keep children calm if they show any kind of uneasiness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The pandemic has changed many things in society, instead of traditionally how things were being done, much alterations had to be made to accommodate some of hose changes, such as safe distancing, wearing masks, regular hand washing etc.\u00a0 People have learned to cope differently due to government restrictions that have been put in place for the welfare and safety of individuals and families.\u00a0 \u00a0Can you imagine a society where the restrictions are so much that even families kept apart without close contact such as not being able to touch each other.\u00a0 This must be devastating for some or even most families.\u00a0 But the fact is that rules must be observed for the purposes of safeguarding everyone in society.\u00a0 However, we have to learn to adapt to changes as they occur, and remember that things will eventually get back to normal.\u00a0 Most importantly, is for each and everyone to do their part by protecting themselves, and protecting each other, as that is the requirement of all of us.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>  It is not easy for parents to take on the role of  teachers  who are trained and have lots of experience to do the job.
