Case: Well, when I was younger...
Well, when I was younger...
Jan is a first year teacher who was approached by a parent regarding his concern for the arrangement of desks in groups in all of his daughter's classroom. He feels the classroom arrangement is the reason his daughter is not making A's in all of her classes because this encourages her to talk. He makes it clear that he is military and when he was young his teachers sat students in rows and taught and then students practice on their own. How should Jan respond to the parent's concerns?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Explain to the parent that times has changed. Show him the school improvement plan if there is one. Explain to him the benefits of working with others and explain that there are times when the students are required to work independently, but learning from others and being able to work with others serves benefits in the classroom these days. We aren't trying to make it a military school but a place where students are motivated to learn. |
