Case: Whiny Student, parents blame teacher
I teach first grade and have a student who whines and pouts about everything. It can be because he is not the line leader (each student has an assigned weekly jobs) to having to complete an writing assignment. He is a young student and is the youngest of the class. I follow our school behavior plan and he is on RTI 3 for academics. I talk to the parents because his grades are below average and I am concerned about academics. I have included in the my discussions that behavior is an issue. The parents simply state that "he is just trying to play you" or "you are not strict enough". I follow the rules and classroom procedures. What should I do? I believe behavior is a key issue related to his academics
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
When dealing with student behavior issues, especially with younger students, I always start with what I can do to find the root of the problem. From my experience I have found that with the younger students there is usually something causing the whiny behavior. For instance, it might be the student is not getting enough sleep, they are hungry or they simply want some attention. Along with giving the student plenty of positive praise when the student behaves appropriately, I try to really get to know the student. |

Comments: I like this solution because it doesn't treat the student as a bad kid but tries to find out the reason. |
