[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Extreme inclusionists who think it's OK for classrooms to be evacuated 3-4 times/week will be death of public education.  Between specials and transition time and recess, kids don't have THAT much time for core instruction.  Inclusion is very important, where appropriate. Sometimes there may be gray areas where a judgment call is appropriate. But there is no gray in what OP is reporting. If that kid can get his behavioral issues to the point that the class is evacuating once, maybe twice a week, OK.  But there has to be limit on this.  Inclusion at the expense of 27 other kids is preposterous. [/quote]

Best post on the thread.  Evacuating a classroom for unregulated behavior maybe once or twice a year is understandable.

And, the question is--how long are the kids sitting in the hall.  I doubt seriously that this is a matter of five or ten minutes.  If the kid is that enraged, it likely takes some time for him to calm down.  And, the teacher certainly does not want to take her kids back into the classroom to just have to walk out again.

This is emotionally disturbing to the teacher, too.  Even the best teachers will have a tough time walking back in the classroom and picking up where they left off.  It disrupts the schedule and the projects and learning in the classroom.  Remember when your two year old threw temper tantrums?  Were you always cool, calm, and collected?  [/quote]
