Case: Middle School Relationships
I am currently in my 6-12 Internship. A common issue I have noticed is that many students start "dating", but then they quickly break up. This is starting to cause issues where certain students will not want to work together in their groups due to negative feelings towards each other because of a break up. I have tried changing the groups, but then another relationship arises that causes issues. I am not sure how to have the students work collaboratively without the drama. Any advice would be appreciated.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Middle school relationships are something that can't be avoided unfortunately. I would tell students that they will need to work cooperatively with the people in their groups, regardless of what goes on outside of the class. In the real world they will need to work with people they don't like or get along with. Change up the groups and let them know that they will only need to deal with this for the class period and can move on. |

Comments: I agree that Students should learn how to work effectively together. However, if it really is an issue the students should be separated until they can learn to work collaboratively with each other. |
