Case: Know it all
Every class has one: a "know it all." Well, in class I had a student who thought she was the gift to the classroom and knew absolutely everything about everything. We were doing a pair share activity and she was completely insulting one of the students in her group who didn't really feel like participating. On one hand, the girl was being overly mean, but on the other hand the student wasn't doing what he was supposed to do. I was wondering if I should tell the student to calm down and not worry about the other student, or should I tell the unmotivated student to buck up and do the work? Either choice seems to have its draw backs and I can't really tell both of them to leave each other alone and do the work because then they will both be upset with me and not do the work.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You are right, either situation is going to have its down falls. I would personally talk to the group and make sure that each student is accountable for their own actions and work. In addition, I would also think about who I put in groups with this child. The "know it all" student needs to know that there is a right time and place to share their thoughts. For example, each day have the last 10 minutes of class be a time for students to share their thoughts and concerns of the day. |

| Comments: I agree. Addressing the entire class will not single anyone out, yet remind them all of the expectations of pair-share. |
