Case: Recess and tattling I cannot tell you how often students will come back from recess with issues and tattling on each other. I am not down there for the incident and the teacher that is does not see what is going on or the students do not address it when they are down there. I am flattered that our classroom and I am a safe place and person for them but I have a lot of difficulty getting to the bottom of things and I feel like I waste a lot of class time trying to deal with it. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I once shadowed a Kindergarten teacher who had a "tattle box". Students wrote anonymous tattles on little sheets of paper and put them in the box so they did not disrupt the class by going directly to the teacher. The teacher read the tattles in private and only addressed serious matters considering most of them were silly or not worth the lecture. I thought this was a unique and effective idea to minimize disruptions to the class. |
