[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like a teacher problem. You have to make the students respect you. You are not their friend. You are their teacher. Say this on the first day and repeat every day. Students do what you allow them to do. When a child gets crazy with me or gets an attitude with me, I get crazier right back at them. They know I do not play. The “troubled” kids get sent to my class. They don’t mess up with me because I set the tone and the environment in which they are in. I hold them accountable. When my door closes, it is me against the children. Forget rules and regulations, I do what is in the best interest of the children. You play around in my class when you are supposed to be working, then you owe me recess considering you already had your time to free play in my class. [/quote] OK, show off I've been in the system for over 25 years - all in the DCC/NEC. So I'm not some wallflower. But stop blaming others. Just bc you eat nails for breakfast doesn't mean you have to blame others who may have a different approach. Your post is offensive for many reasons. but #1? Teachers shouldn't HAVE to eat nails for breakfast just to teach. This is a societal problem that isn't solved by bashing colleagues. And just b/c your classroom is under control doesn't mean other teachers - who are equally as talented and organized - have your personality. Are you channeling Madeline Hunter? [/quote]
