See the example provided:
“Classroom management and rules from previous lessons connected to the topic of language because the terms/language used for the rules of the classroom need to be understood by young children. The teacher needs to use simple and positive terminology to help their students understand the rules for successful classroom management. If many of the children are second language learners, pictures or visuals would also be helpful (for all young children).”
While you can use classroom management and language as one of your topics, you should not use the example given as your own.
