Case: Bathroom Chaos
In our school, we have one hallway for pre-k, k, and first grade. With all of the classrooms (15) we only have one bathroom for our boys and girls. Each bathroom has four stalls, but it is so chaotic when we take bathroom breaks. I am starting to have issues with my kids misbehaving because of all the overcrowding and craziness in the bathrooms. I teach kindergarten and can't always go with every student to the restroom because I am in the classroom with the rest of my students. I need some advice on how to monitor behavior and keep my students from making poor choices when going to the restroom independently.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I teach Kindergarten as well. At the beginning of the year I teach my students proper and improper bathroom behavior. Occasionally, I have to go back over the rules of bathroom time. Until your students can manage going to the bathroom independently, you might consider going as an entire class at certain times of the day that do not interfere with Pre-K and First grades. Also, the teachers of these grades should get together and collaborate on the timing. If each grade had certain times they went to the bathroom as a whole class then that should cut down on the overcrowding. |

| Comments: Informing the students of bathroom rules only once may not be enough, so reminding students of these rules throughout the year is helpful. Designated bathroom schedules helps with the overcrowding issues. |
