Case: Difficult Behavior
I have two students 8th grade who are inseparable, and all they do is talk while I am teaching. One student cares what I think about him and wants to succeed in school (student A), but the other student does not care to listen to the direction at all (student B). I sat these students at other ends of the classroom, but they always seem to find their way back to each other and start talking again. I told student A to get up and move if student B comes to sit with him in class, this seems to work but this has started to make Student B even more difficult in my classroom. Student B is becoming more upset with me and is starting to act out in class even more since he can not talk to his friend. What else can I do to keep these students motivated in my class?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This may be the only class that these students have together and the only opportunity to talk to each other. You could allow the students to quietly converse with each other after both of them have completed the lesson for the day. As long as they finish their work and arent distracting the other students it might prevent disruption. |

| Comments: The teacher shouldn't give in to the bad behavior. Just because it "may be the only class the students have together" doesn't make it right for the students to not listen to the teachers instruction. |

| Comments: I do not think this would be very effective. It would be difficult for the teacher to control the volume and extent of the conversation. Either way, it would still be unproductive and distracting and there is no way to ensure they get their work done. |
