Refusal to Transition
I have a student who refuses to leave the classroom and walk in line. The student will cross her arms and refuse to leave the classroom. I cannot leave the student, but I also have a schedule to keep and it's affecting my other students. What should I do? |

A solution would be to express my concern with the student and remind them about the classroom procedures. Inform the student that a conference with parents will have to be set if the behavior does not change. Another solution would be to make transitioning fun or create a successful transition chart with a reward system when transition without an issue. |

I would begin by seeing if there is a reason behind the student not wanting to leave the classroom. See if something is causing it and find a way to remove that stressor. Like what was already suggested, I would have a conversation with student about classroom expectations, and repercussions for not following the rules. Another way is to come up with a creative way to make lines more fun, such as buddy walking. Have students pair up with a buddy, and walk together towards the next activity. |

I think having a more fun and creative way to transition might help as well. Students might feel more 'safe' in the classroom, so having a more creative way to transition might show the student that everywhere else at school is safe and fun. |

I would suggest to talk with the student individually and learn more about them. Is there a reason they are not cooperating? Sometimes, there is a reason behind behavior. For example, the student is alphabetically placed behind a student they do not get along with therefore, they do not want to line up. Or they have a fear of being left alone. I think if you are able to speak with the child and build your relationship, the student will grow trust in you and be open about what is going on. |

My suggestion is to give that student a job. Thus could be line leader, for Holder, line observer ect. Make the student feel like they need to be apart of the line and transition period. Also, give that student a1 minute warning before transitions to get prepared and be ready. |

Ask for support because the student's behavior is affecting the routine of the entire classroom. Ask the administration that provides another person to help you with the student during transition periods. you can create a mini behavioral plan with something that interest him every time the student collaborates until he reaches the goal of smooth transition. |

I would seek out support and maybe mention the behavior to the parents of the student. |

I would try to ask for any instructional assistant support to try and get the student to transition. In the mean time I suggest contacting the parent(s) and discussing the behavior and try to come up with the reason why the student is refusing to transition. Maybe they don't like the next location or the transition itself. Perhaps give them a 5 and 10 minute warning that they will be transitioning. |

Reminding the student of the schedule and policies would be important. You could assign her a job such as line leader, door holder etc. If that does not help, I think having a parent conference would be helpful. |

Ask the student why they do not want to leave. Set up a reward system for good behavior. If she goes and does what she is supposed to do she gets to do something special at the end of the day. |

Is there a behavior specialist at the school? If so, they should be contacted about the students behavior when it occurs. That way, you are able to escort your class and the student who is refusing to leave is properly supervised. |

I think the first step would be asking the student why they do not want to leave the class. If this does not lead to a solution, I would create a rule procedure for them to follow when leaving and reward them when they do this correctly. If this behavior does not change, I would suggest setting up a conference with parents and administration to help come to a conclusion. |

You could try assigning her a role, like line leader, to see if she's receptive to being given a helpful task. |
