  Case: Student shout out
You are teaching a fairly simple concept to a class of eighth graders and a student yells out, "I don't get this stuff at all! You are a bad teacher! I want a new teacher! How should you react to this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is never a fun shout out to hear in the classroom, but in 8th grade is sadly not unusual. I suggest that you ask them what they are not understanding and that you are glad they pointed out that they weren't understanding because sometimes it is easy for you as a teacher to use terms that are above the level of your students. If this does not work sometimes a quiet one on one conversation with the student and maybe the student and a counselor may be necessary.
