Thanks very much Linda, I will implement it this term. Learners were so disruptive last term.

I missed over two months of first semester due to personal illness. Most of the students have settled down and gotten back into a routine, but I have one class that nothing is working. This is not my first time at the rodeo, but this group is proving to be quite the challenge. They are a smart group of kids – they are always at or above the county average on standardized tests. For the most part, they’re all leaders. And they are LOUD!!!!! For all their smarts, they’re not necessarily the kindest – to each other or to anyone in authority. I’ve spent the month back moving two steps forward one step back, and sometimes two steps forward, four steps back!!!! It’s a high school class so some of what is discussed here doesn’t pertain. I’ve tried to work through some of the suggestions to see how I could use it with these kiddos, but I’d really love to hear some ideas that are just for high school. Oh, I should add that while I was gone every single assist principal was called to the classroom at one time or another. Some came in multiple times. I was only with them a couple of classes at the beginning of the school year so they never had a chance to form into a cohesive, functioning class.

Thank you!!!

In reply to Christine.

That’s tough because at college, it’s more on the student to choose to learn than in K-12. But you do need to make sure the environment isn’t so disruptive that other students can’t learn.

Maybe try to focus on equipping them to create a classroom culture that will help them succeed. If it’s a big problem, it might be worth stopping and having a conversation. What do YOU need in this classroom? What can we do to help each other? Work to make it a place of mutual respect.

If a student is being disruptive, in college you may be able to simply ask him to leave the room and only return if/when he’s ready to not disrupt everyone else (natural consequence of missing the material)

Do you have some wisdom for the teacher in a College classroom? My students are coming straight from High School so they still have some immaturity classic of the teenage years. This past school year was really a difficult classroom management year for myself, but also for my colleagues. I will implement this plan this September and tweak it for the audience, but if you have anything more to add for young adult learners, I would love some feedback.

Thx!
