[quote=Anonymous]This is a real issue. When my DS was in 3rd the director had to speak openly to the entire school about the problems with kids forming "clubs" that excluded other kids. Apparently it's a stage... The school took action: 1) it recognized the problem, 2) discussed it openly at weekly assembly and sent home memos to help families discuss, and 3) sent people out at recess to organize games/activities in which all kids are involved - sort of disrupt the balance of power, perhaps introduce some team-building activities, and move on from there. Interns/student teachers are great for providing extra bodies at recess. [/quote]
