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!) I do agree with posts above that mentioned having an activity where students will be able to move around--whether it pertains to the lesson or it is an incentive (like a Go Noodle video) for staying on task during the lesson.
