Case: "My daughter sits with all boys?"
At the beginning of the school year I had my desks in groups of three to four. I had a parent email me and explain that her daughter felt bullied because she was a table with all boys. The table consisted of her daughter and two other boys. I tried to explain that the desks were in groups of three and one gender would out weigh the other. She did not seem to understand. What would you say to a parent if this happened to you?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would first explain the significance of having a certain number of students to a group (e.g. more ideas than with only two students or possibly to prevent behavior issues in groups of four or more). If she still does not understand, I would be sure to advise her that their behavior is monitored, especially she has concerns about sexual harassment, etc. If she insists, suggest that you will make sure her daughter is grouped with at least one other girl. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. I would try and talk to the parent and if that didnt work I would place the child in a group of 2 girls. |

Comments: I think explaining to her the reasons for the groupings and asking questions is a good thing to do. If she is still not happy then I agree that her daughter should be moved. |
