  Case: Boys Will Be Boys
There must have been a baby boom of boys a few years ago! Our fourth grade classes are majority boys. In my class, I have 7 girls and 18 boys. This dynamic has been difficult to balance. I have noticed the boys are very talkative and playful (sometimes very disruptive). How can I tailor my plans to appease the boys as well as the girls interest? What are some daily techniques I can try to get the boys more focused and less playful?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Making the classroom more interactive to help those active personalities get more from there learning experience. Both Male and female like lessons that are interactive and that should help everyone in the classroom meld together and make the classroom less difficult and more balanced.
