  Case: Whiny Student, parents blame teacher
I teach first grade and have a student who whines and pouts about everything. It can be because he is not the line leader (each student has an assigned weekly jobs) to having to complete an writing assignment. He is a young student and is the youngest of the class. I follow our school behavior plan and he is on RTI 3 for academics. I talk to the parents because his grades are below average and I am concerned about academics. I have included in the my discussions that behavior is an issue. The parents simply state that "he is just trying to play you" or "you are not strict enough". I follow the rules and classroom procedures. What should I do? I believe behavior is a key issue related to his academics
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If behavior is the key issue, I would look into some type of behavior intervention. Look into completing a behavior assessment so a BIP (behavior intervention plan) can be put into place. Having documentation of the issue may enable you to receive more support for the student as well.
