When this did not work, she would look at me and tell me the kids are all bad, and she asks how can she be ding this job with kids that don't listen. The kids all hear her say this, and after, they act up even more. She only adds fuel to their fire. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I agree that the teacher seems very overwhelmed but that is never an excuse to call children bad. I would work together to find things that work best in your classroom. Maybe come to her with a few suggestions during one on one time. I would suggest talking about it at a minimal stress time.
