Case: Cliques
I have two students who are acting out towards the other students. They are both girls who pick on the girls with less friends. How do I stop this without crossing my boundaries as their teacher and not their parents?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Hi aDaWaV,
In my current classroom, there is a girl clique. To deal with this behavior, my co-teacher and I taught a social/emotional lesson about bullying and how to treat others. We had the students make a pledge and write three ways in which they would change their behavior on flashcards. We made a poster out of their flashcards and hung it in the classroom to remind them of their pledge. If this continues after the lesson, I definitely think the parents should be informed and the students should be conferenced with. Ask the parents if this is an issue for them with their daughters friendships outside of school. Ask if they would be willing to work with you on addressing this issue.

Comments: Cliques are difficult to handle, especially when the aggressors fly under the radar. I like that your solution involves the entirety of the class. I would also ask if the parents would be willing to meet with one another to provide support for each other and their children. |
