Re: trouble with connecting with students
Posted by Me on 2/27/08

    I gave out a sheet with grades on it so far and one of the kids
    who continualy talks approached me today, so at least one does.
    Its hard to keep them at the end of the period because they have
    lunch, and I dont want to hold them from not getting lunch and
    get in trouble for that. Ive tried individually talking with
    them outside of class, even having them leave class to fill out
    a paper on the situation, but some of them just think its a
    joke. Its a high school class so I like to have discussions with
    them but whenever one person is talking theres 5 other
    conversations going on, so I have to stop the person who is
    supposed to be talking. I dont know if Im not teaching well
    enough and not connecting with them or just not disciplining
    them good enough.
