Classroom Behavior Management Part II

[@rosaleechestnut5778]

You know what would be awesome? If you could put up a packet or bundle on TpT that has all your first day/first week activities that help you start building that classroom community

[@heatherweber531]

one suggestions that was given in my ed class was to do a call home before school starts. this gives the parents time to talk to you, the teacher, about any concerns or worries or suggestions about their child. this is also a good time to talk about seating preference (for students with eye issues), IEPs, 504s, or any other diagnosis, you can also find out about any family changes that either happened over the summer or will happen during the school year. Such as arrival of new sibling or foster child or extended family member, death or marriage in the family, any thing else that may cause the child to struggle. you could start the call off with talking to the student and welcome them to your class. It also shows the student that you will call home and since the first contact was for a positive reason you have the parents in your corner. this works for all grade levels.

[@gayleneparisien2581]

I believe tools for students who can't sit still are both useful and distracting. Every child is different, and throughout my years of teaching have learned that you have to learn what is causing these behaviors. I personally don't let fidgeting bother me as long as he or she is listening and understanding what is being taught. I have allowed students to stand, bounce on a ball/chair, use a rubber-foot band, and may other things.

[@rockingdanteachingman]

Thanks for all your tips on Classroom management.

[@tchellej8870]

Where do you shop for your work wardrobe at? I love your style

[@StMarilyn]

Please make a detailed video on the wheel of choice. Thanks.

[@717dsk]

Can you do a video about things parents can do to prepare their children for kindergarten? I have a little one that will be going into kindergarten in a year. I am preschooling from home and I would love to get some tips from an actual kindergarten teacher!! I love your videos and have been binge watching over the last couple days.

[@BridgingLiteracy]

I am going to touch on this in my upcoming Q&A video! I will also put it on my video list for the Summer! Thank you for watching!!

[@Scoutmhen]

You are a wonderful teacher and person! I am not a teacher but I have a daughter with ADHD. She is entering first grade in September. We have our first 504 meeting in August. You have given me some great ideas to offer up during the meeting. Thank you so much!

[@PB-bb3jc]

this year I have had a revolving door, every month I get a new student. How do you incorporate new students in your class?

[@gayleneparisien2581]

May I ask what was the reason of getting a new student every month. That's a lot of extra work on your part.

[@hollytaylor4398]

How do you ha doe the kids who cut in line all the time. Or the one would Ella you cutted even when no one has cut in the line... I have tried making them the caboose and talked about kids sized problems and teacher sized problems and that cutting in line is a kid sized problem. But nothing seems to be doing the trick.

[@BridgingLiteracy]

+Holly Taylor - I have a few options depending on the situation. I'll add it to a video next week 👌

[@amyreneehawkins8647]

Where did you get the buckets for bucket filling?

[@lilyh8373]

I have an issue with kids crying when I take away something they were not using appropriately. They grab at the item and they claw at it and they whine and cry. How would you handle this child?

[@BridgingLiteracy]

This is a fantastic question! I would try doing this from a different approach. I would give warnings before having to take any item away. Remember some kids have not been taught what to do and what not to do. This is a great teaching moment for them! After the warnings, I would have the child come up to me and discuss what we had discussed about the item and what they believe should happen. I would then tell them that I will take it and when they have decided and can tell me what they should do then I return it back to them. You want to give as many opportunities as possible for the child to correct and be sure to model the behavior. I really hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions!

[@franswanson8201]

Thank you for sharing. I have moved from fifth grade to third grade. I am willing to try these ideas to me third graders are really little. I love your ideas

[@katelynburow5585]

I just love you & your channel!!! I'm a new teacher and I'm learning sooo much!!

[@mpdubois3720]

I cannot wait to be a teacher! You inspire me a lot :)) Thanks for the tips! I cannot wait to use them! I will definitely watch this video again later!

[@erica166]

Any suggestions for students that talk too much? I have one student inparticular that has a very hard time staying quiet.

[@BridgingLiteracy]

I've done a few different things. I've moved that student during work time, did a reward system and gave smiley faces when that child was not talking. Some kids just can't help it. I had one sweet kiddo that natural yelled when talking and finally I had to give up and just accept it. Behavior systems work. If you have one in place then every time that child is quiet give him/her something. You could even try the timer and have a set amount of time that he/she has to be quiet during work before they are allowed to talk. My philosophy is if the kid is working and on task but talking it doesn't bother me so long as he/she is not disturbing others. It's hard to tell sometimes because kids respond in different ways. What have you tried?

[@erica166]

+The Lettered Classroom I have given out stickers when she has been on task and working. I really love the timer idea! I think this would be great for the whole class. I am going to grab some this weekend. I think I will get one for each table and make it so that they work quietly for 5 minutes or so and then they can talk while working. I think my kids will totally love this!

[@Lillywolfleg533]

I have autism and use the wobble cushion in class as I get very distracted and fidgety.

[@primaryprocedures2289]

Can you make a video of your weekly filing system and what's in your student data binders.

[@BridgingLiteracy]

Have you had a chance to watch these? Hopefully they address your questions. Thanks for watching! Organizing Your Paper Flow kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXPceWuvfcd7ntk Organizing Student Data ~ Data Binders kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJKypYyMrdFnZ5Y

[@MariaRodriguez-tu4im]

Absolutely loved the video! It was very helpful. I am going into student teaching this fall. Almost a graduate, therefore, I am trying to learn as much as I can. In regards to the behavior chart, how would you introduce a behavior chart for a student that you have to constantly redirect? Would you discuss this with your principal to get approval? Then would you speak to the parent(s)? How is it that you approach the matter.

[@BridgingLiteracy]

A lot would have to take place before I made the decision to start a student on an individual behavior chart. I would have to to have multiple meetings with parents and getting input from colleagues. I would then sit down with the parent and principal and determine what would be best for that child. ****Side note: I have done many of these meetings over the phone.

[@MariaRodriguez-tu4im]

+The Lettered Classroom Thank you for all your input! I greatly appreciate it!

[@TheFamilyFunnyFarm]

Please show us a video of you "wheel of choice"

[@Alexahoover1]

I love watching your videos!!! I decided to follow my heart and I changed my major to early childhood education. I hope that one day I am as great of a teacher as you are!

[@BridgingLiteracy]

Best of luck to you! It's a fantastic career.

[@loganmccord5152]

Do you have referalls where you teach?

[@BridgingLiteracy]

+Logan McCord What exactly do you mean by referrals?

[@loganmccord5152]

a referall is where a student gets written up and is placed in in school suspension/ out of school suspension p.s your really pretty

[@ruthkraus8195]

I am 14 years old and I am 100% sure that I am going to be a special education teacher. I came upon your videos and I absolutely love them and I have been writing down the thins to remember. Thanks so much for the great videos! Btw you have an awesome style! I wish my teachers dressed like that! :)

[@BridgingLiteracy]

Thank you so much, Ruth! Stay focused and you will make a great impression on the world! Thank you so much for watching!

[@enamorada503]

My sister in kindergarten had a small bladder and constantly going to the bathroom. The teacher didn’t like it. But she would be getting sent with different clothes because she would pee her pants in class.

[@besparkly857]

Your philosophy and advice are so spot on. Thank you for sharing your very valuable tips from a fellow teacher:)

[@taylorhenrie5099]

My comment is I Love this video so much and my comment is do you have any children in the classroom with Disabilities that they have behaviors

[@lorenzomuriedas4481]

You have just described all the different behaviors in my class. Thanks a lot.

[@BridgingLiteracy]

+Lorenzo Muriedas - good to hear. Hopefully some of these ideas help!

[@vanessagomez9685]

Are you in a bilingual classroom ?!

[@BreanaRaeofSunshine]

love this! thank you for all of your great tips. i feel like this is a video i will constantly be coming back to(:

[@dianeramsey4113]

Do you have the same issues with your own boys that you have with your class?

[@BridgingLiteracy]

+Diane Ramsey Yes. It's hard because I find myself using my teacher voice with them, and I know that I can be harder on my own kids than I am on my students.

[@agta4669]

this was great can you do a video on how to help kids with learning disabilities

[@lisaloucee4233]
