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 set expectations at the beginning of each session. I would make sure that they are aware of the consequences for not following expectations. I would set some type of incentive up for them to do good over a period of time rather than just one time.
