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!) In a classroom I interned for they had a bathroom chart and each student would move their magnet if they leave to use the restroom and move it back when they return. These were kindergartners and they knew the rules that more then one in the bathroom was not allowed. I do not think they need designated bathroom breaks but can dismiss themselves when need be.
