When your students misbehave for other teachers - 0 views

  • Most students view specials classes as a break from regular learning. That’s not true, of course, but it’s how they see it.
  • In many students’ minds, it’s not necessary to sit still and listen to the teacher until “real” learning takes place again back in their own classroom with their “real” teacher.
  • So if you can, plan those less active lessons for the days students have PE or other specials that permit them to move around, and on the days when students will need to concentrate during specials, try to plan more hands-on activities in your classroom beforehand.

  • If a particular teacher has a hard time handling your class or certain students in your class, talk with him or her about it when the kids aren’t around. You could say, “I know __ can be challenging sometimes. One thing I’ve tried in my classroom with him/her is ___. I’ve also tried ___ and sometimes that works, too.” Find out what kind of routines and behavior management/reward systems the teacher is using, and share what has worked in your room
  • Don’t put yourself on a guilt trip about something that happened while another teacher was in charge
  • The key to getting students to behave appropriately no matter where they’re at is teaching them to make wise decisions for themselves and exercise self-control rather than depending on teacher control

    A good article. Sometimes, it's a struggle to know what to do about a situation that occurred when you weren't around. This article gives a proactive approach.

    I used this song in my Literature class the other day! It's super catchy, and the kids loved it. They asked to watch it again, and even sang along. This woman has a whole bunch of really excellent grammar songs to spice an everyday lesson.

    Diigolet Diigolet is not as feature-rich as the Diigo toolbar, but it can be set-up by simple drag-and-drop - no download or installation needed, and it works for all major browsers. Much more powerful than bookmarklets offered by other social bookmarking sites, Diigolet is a "super bookmarklet" that allows you to highlight and add sticky-notes, in addition to simple bookmarking. You can get started by watching a tutorial video.

    A NYT article about a man who is a mime named Tim Chartier, whose day job is associate professor in the department of mathematics and computer science at Davidson College in North Carolina. The plunger skit and many others that he and his wife, Tanya, have developed are part of their Mime-matics business. Having learned from the master of the craft, Marcel Marceau, they use their skills in mime to teach mathematics in a decidedly unconventional way.

    It's called "the summer brain drain" because during those long, hot months away from school, kids supposedly forget a lot of what they had learned in class. Research, however, tells a more nuanced story: Some learning is lost among some groups, and others gain. What do you guys think?? Does "Summer Brain Drain" truly exist or is it just a myth??

    Although I open Twitter in the classroom once in a while using my appletv, I am learning there are so many more ways to utilize this tool. In any case, twitter has replaced my newspaper and many other sources of reading about the news and what is going on in the world.

    Very interesting article; it calls to mind the original practices some students have come up with in various jobs which I have assigned for them to do around the classroom from organizing bookshelves to putting up boarders on bulletin boards and window frames. When I discover they are NOT executed as I would have thought to do the job, I give great thanks and praise, and restrain from changing to my preference! It reminds me of my mother's dislike of how I folded towels or loaded the dishwasher when I was younger - I refuse to show any exasperation over the student's creative execution of the task or project. (Although I must say I would NEVER encourage our middle schoolers to cartwheel into the library or any other classroom as a test of social acceptances of behavior as referenced in the article!)

    "Genocide Watch exists to predict, prevent, stop, and punish genocide and other forms of mass murder. Our purpose is to build an international movement to prevent and stop genocide." Straight from the website. Good resource to be able to educate older students about genocides of the past, present, and those in the possible future.

    How do I use Google Scholar to find scholarly articles that I canaccess for free? New! Learn how to find free, full-text articles with Google Scholar in a simple video tutorial! Google Scholar is a specialized search engine which looks much like Google web search, but searches only for scholarly articles and books. The search results list from a Google Scholar search will list citations for articles, and may provide links to free or fee-based full-text articles. Sometimes, a link to find the full-text article using D'Amour Library subscriptions will appear in a citation as well; this feature is only available when searching Google Scholar from the campus network of Western New England University.

    I just recently learned about this search and shared it with family members. I am surprised I haven't heard of others talking about it, as I would think this search would cut down on wasted search-time.
