what does it mean?
Managing students behavior is a lot more than just monitoring how students perform in the classroom, it's about establishing a productive atmosphere where students are expected to work and learn with excellence. As teachers, it is our responsibility to be overseeing how students behave when working individually or interacting with others, and through that teachers should be holding students to a set standard of behavior.
This is important because good management of a classroom is required to have students successfully learn. During times of instruction, it is important that students are engaged and not being distracted by disruptions around the classroom. It can be very easy to get frustrated when students misbehave but its critical that when those times occur, teachers respond with patience and love.

Artifacts
Pepperoni Pizza:
When students are engaged in interactions with either partners or small groups, the teacher would yell "Pepperoni Pizza" and then the whole class would get silent. This is just an example of a call and response from the teacher to the students that quiets down the classroom and gets them engaged for what is coming next in the lesson. Any two word phrase can be used but typically less serious phrases have a more positive effect.
Sticker Charts:
Each student gets their own chat where the teacher can reward good behavior or on task learning with a sticker. Students would then keep track of how many stickers they get throughout the year with checkmarks every month and a student with the most would receive a prize.
