Case: Small Group Issues
I work with a small group of students everyday. These students on their own are not too problematic, but together can be very challenging. Due to my obligations and feelings of my CT, I must keep the group as it is. They are constantly off-task during my instruction, making rude comments to each other, etc. I have tried both offering rewards for good behavior and the appropriate punishments for not behaving (I've done both a phone call home and given a few lunch detentions) What would you suggest to help correct their behavior?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would explain to the students that you are there to help them and if they are not going to take advantage of your help then you can just sit there. If they don't cooperate then let them do the work by themselves without any help from the group or you. |

Comments: If the children are already off-task to begin with, then just sitting there and making them do their own work is not going to fix the behavior problem. Sometimes, the children may take that as a sign that you don't really care.. so why should they? |

Comments: I believe this would only further complicate the situation. It could possibly work with older students but even then it may prove to hinder rather than help. |
