I will describe their behavior as "very disruptive" during instructional time. I am becoming increasingly concerned because their behavior has become more aggressive as the alternative school population increase. Some of the students are having difficulty getting along with other students because of former incidents at their home school. Some students are very defiant and often fail to follow directions. Some of the parents aren't great solutions to the problem. Some of the students has been very aggressive towards other students. These behaviors have resulted in rejection and general isolation from the other children. Regarding their academic skills, some of the students are good students academically, however, their behavior hinders others. When some are redirected their behavior some often refuses to cooperate, which subsequently leads to extended periods of off-task behavior. These behaviors aren't everyday but they have often. I have gained a rapport with students, but what strategies should be put in place to help assist with this problem. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) It is difficult when the students join your class and were not apart of the initial first week. Because this is such a large issue, I would suggest "re-doing" your first week of school behavior management introduction and system. Like if you worked with the kids to create a set of class rules, re-do this with the new class so they are invested too.
