Case: Death of a Student's Parent
A student of mine just lost their father suddenly. They are typically very well-behaved and eager to learn. Since the passing, this student has had many outburst and is defiant. I feel bad punishing this student because I don't want to cause them any more distress. I can't continue to have this student misbehave, but I also don't want to hurt their feelings. This is a new situation for me and any help would be appreciated.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Communicate to the student that you are there for them and will be there if they need to talk. Tell them that although they are going through something right now, they are not allowed to act defiantly in the classroom and go against the classroom rules. These outbursts are probably due to an influx in emotion, so give them the opportunity to go to a "safe place" in the classroom when they are feeling overwhelmed. Instead of having an outburst that disrupts others, let them go to to a spot in the room to gather their emotions and join the class again. Obviously, this isn't something that can't be in their safe space all day but hopefully they get back in the groove of things and know that you care. Also, have them get in touch with the guidance counselor to help with the grief. |
