HLP/TPE Alignment Resource

HLP 7: Establish a consistent, organized, and respectful learning environment.

Establish age appropriate and culturally responsive expectations, routines, and procedures within classrooms that are positively stated and explicitly taught and practiced. Provide age-appropriate specific performance feedback in meaningful and caring ways. By establishing, following, and reinforcing expectations of all students within the classroom, reduce the potential for challenging behavior and increase student engagement. When establishing learning environments, build mutually respectful relationships with students and engage them in setting the classroom climate; be respectful; and value ethnic, cultural, contextual, and linguistic diversity to foster student engagement across learning environments.
