Control The Classroom

I was just observed my supervising teacher last week and she made me realize that in order to is a successful teacher you have to control the students in the class. When I was teaching the students really did not want to listen to me. I did not really try to discipline them and they basically got out of control. They did not want to listen and they would not sit still. The students understood the material, but it took longer then it should off. So what I am trying to say is that as a teacher you need to be in control. If you show them that you are in charge then they will respect you and listen.
