Aligning my goals with my schools will help my students suceed. They will have a more concise view of what to expect. Also, extra credit should be offered as an additional tool when needing more practice.

Keeping the studetns engaged by moving to a different activity instead of waiting for their attention is a better tactic. 

I am going to use the 10-20-30 rule for my presentations going forward to keep my students engaged.

There are several personality traits that benefit the classroom environment. One does not supercede another, however they do need to flow. The students feed off my energy and if I am low, they will inreturn match that.
