Question

Teachers what do you do when kids start misbeahving and preventing others to learn?
I suggest 1 and 2 time warning, and then send outside besides the door for around 5 min(and take off points).
cause in math class,a few kids there is hyper, and hte teachers get mad at them alot.and yells at the class (when half of us arent doing anything) and now gives us double homework.
and we only had 5 minutes of learning time today.but u gotta admit its kinda enteraining...
so what do you guys do?

Answer 1

Interesting that this question is from a student. If the class is that out of control, the teacher should be asking for help!
The answer is ... it depends...
For minor things a warning is usually sufficient.
If kids don't respond to a warning, we have something called a Refocus which allows the student to go to a different room or to the hallway and fill out what they were doing, what they should have been doing and what they are going to do when they return to class. If they blow it again, it means a phone call to the parents ( the kid has to make the call, explain why and then the teacher gets to talk to parent)
Some teachers hand out Good student tickets for kids who are doing things right such as turning homework in on time, scoring A on test, trying to participate in class etc. On a regular basis the teacher draws a few ticket with a student's name on it. The student may choose something from a box ( now grown into several shelves in a closet) in exchange for ticket. Other teachers have done something similar, but use the tickets as a form of money to buy something from classroom store.

Sometimes a one on one talk with a student helps. Also, a teacher can try changing where students are sitting, change the pace or structure of the class ( keep it interesting and fast paced for hyper kids), provide some hands on activities, not just lecture or paper and pencil activities. Parent /teacher/ student conferences sometimes help. Home visits are often dreaded by students, but very effective.
If a kid doesn't get his work done because he is messing around, we have homework clubs both before and after school. Last year I picked up kids on a regular basis every Tuesday and Thursday mornings 7:15 a.m. we got a lot done.

In a few severe cases, we have had an adult such as an aide, parent or grandparent actually come to the classroom. Hey, a little embarassment never killed anyone, and if it gets the kid to settle down so others can learn, so be it. We have a local adult and high school mentoring program to provide some extra attention and help to kids who are acting out or have some special needs such as going through divorce or death in family.

Last, but not least, is the ever popular Saturday school. That is exactly what it sounds like. Although it was originally intended for the disruptive students, in the last few years I have found that I have a lot of the kids who really want to learn show up at Saturday school. They bring a sack lunch, make hot chocolate , popcorn and settle down for some serious learning. Hope this gives you some ideas.

You are entitled to more than a few minutes of learning time a day. Also, remember that peer pressure can be a powerful way to deal with behavior issues. If you don't like what is going on, organize your friends and say something to those who think they are so entertaining. Doesn't it get old? Sometimes don't you have the urge to tell them to sit down, shut up, and listen? Of course, you will think of a more tactful way of saying this so you don't get beaten to a pulp. Good luck

Answer 2

I am a substitute teacher...

I warn them ONE time...

they get assigned Lunch D-hall the second time... which means they get their lunch and spend it in a tiny room with others and nobody is allowed to talk.. at all.. if they do, they get ISS (In School Suspension)... and their parents are notified...

they get sent to the office the third time... which usually results in two weeks of Lunch D-hall... or worse depending upon the number of infractions they have on record... and their parents get called in for a conference.

Answer 3

The kids here pull slips. There are consequences with each. If the children are disruptive, they must be removed.
