Case: Cell Phone Problems
You and your school have very strict rules about students not using cell phones in class. The first offense is a warning, and the second is an administrative referral. Mary is obsessed with using her phone and you have warned her and written her up several times. When you contact the parent about these instances, she informs you that she's sorry but she is the one texting her daughter. She said that is is always important and she would prefer if you stop writing her up since she is taking the blame. You are very confused because you do not want other students to see Mary using her phone and think it is ok for them to use thier phones as well. How would you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Our students are allowed the last 5 minutes in class to use their phones, and then at break and lunch. Maybe talk to mom about this, and tell her that during instruction her child cannot have her phone out, but she can check any messages the last 5 minutes of class. This would seem like a happy compromise to me. |

| Comments: I like that compromise! Maybe instead of 5 minutes just use the first 2 minutes of class. That way they can see what was oh-so-important that they missed! It also shows that you care about them and can "relate". |

| Comments: It all depends of the school policy. If this school does not allow cell phones used at the last 5 minutes of class, then the teacher can not just implement this. |

| Comments: While having them using their phones at break and lunch might be okay, I don't think using their phone the last five minutes of class is such a good idea. This is just because the students could be counting down the time they get their electronics back and they won't stay focused on their work. |
