  Case: Classroom Management SOS
I am currently interning in a high school ESE room, the students are at levels between 2nd grade and 4th grade. The teacher that I am with has a hard time managing the behaviors of the lower level students. She has left me in the room at one point and one of the students threw his backpack at the fan that is in the room. I told her about the incident when she got back to the room, the student even came up and told her because he was proud of himself. She just told him to take his seat, was there something else to be done?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As an intern, you are also allowed to correct behavior as well as need to practice classroom management. That type of behavior needs to be corrected when it happens, telling the student to pick up their belongings and move their seat next to you may have even been enough. Assert yourself and be involved, this is your learning experience and time to try your own style of management.

Comments: I completely agree with this solution. It is important that we as future teachers practice implementing classroom management skills even within our internships. It is important to reiterate that this particular type of behavior is unacceptable and give this student a consequence for their behavior.
