Misbehave In Classroom

Improved Essays
According to the research students with disabilities are more likely to have behavior struggles. (Scott, Anderson, & Alter, 2012) Even though students are prevalent to misbehavior does not give the students clearance to misbehave. It allows me to structure my classroom so there are fewer opportunities for the students to misbehave. I maintain high standards for my students with disabilities by encouraging them to accomplish more than he/she has accomplished before. Encouraging students should be done as positively as possible. As the research shows there is a link to poverty and school dropout rates. Another factor was whether academic skills were not valued at home. (Scott, Anderson, & Alter, 2012) At Chief Paul Memorial School all student …show more content…
My classroom has three life rules to remember. 1. You are kind, you are smart, and you are important. This is a quote from the movie, The Help (2011). I have changed the quote to be grammatically correct. Many of my students very low self-esteem. The studies indicate Alaska Natives and American Indians have suicide rates 3 times the national rate of all races combined. (Herne, 2014) My students know that I am someone they can talk to if they need to about suicide. The district requires all staff members to attend suicide trainings every year. 2. Respect each other. I have never had issues with this at my current location because most of my students are related to each other. 3. Believe in yourself. As a teacher, we can only do so much. After students leave this building they have to be responsible for themselves. This will not happen if they do not believe in …show more content…
From research it is best practice to use a system that is systematic and explicit. (Scott, Anderson, & Alter, 2012) As noted earlier I understand there are differences between my culture and culture of my community. Therefore, culture is best to be examined at with an opened mind. Every person has a different view of the world. My worldview may differ greatly from my peers because I am very young to the profession. The best system that I have seen work to help explicitly and systematically teach classroom expected behaviors is the CHAMPS system. (Sprick, 2010) Classroom management is an area that will continue to change and grow with my teaching

    People spend most of their life in school, and by the time kids are in high school, they learn that school is not for them. Many kids fail to complete their credentials in high school and drop out before they graduate. The dropout rate in the U.S is increasing very often and people often try to understand just exactly why kids are dropping out. One of the main factors for kids dropping out is motivation. Kids that do not receive encouragement or guidance at home are very unlikely to find any motivation to go to school because they are not pushed to get their education.…

    The Short Bus, written in in 2007 by Jonathan Mooney, is a story about Jonathan’s journey through the United States one summer, in a short bus. Jonathan, who was labeled as Learning Disabled in school, talks about his experiences with dyslexia and attention problems throughout his schooling experience, and recalls the short bus, used for students with disabilities, and is set out to change the meaning of the “short bus”.

    Recently I did my observation at Chime Institute 's Schwarzenegger Community School in a first-grade class that consisted of about twenty students both those of who have disabilities and do not. These students are typically six years old and at the time there was one teacher and one assistant who led the class.

The mother of the child was also there guiding her daughter and helping with any questions the paraprofessional had regarding her daughter 's needs. For the majority of my observation, I was in a class setting…

    After reading, To Teach: The Journey, In Comics, by William Ayers, I agreed with his beliefs and convictions about teaching. His beliefs are very different than most teachers that I have had in the past in many different ways. For one, my teachers always had us sit in assigned seats that never changed and were in rows with their desk in the back of the classroom. On the other hand, Ayers talked about how “learning is active and not passive” and the students can not be very active if they are just sitting in rows listening to the teacher lecture every minute of everyday. The best ways to learn is by having open discussions and applying the material to everyday life which is not usually done in a lecture-style classroom.…

    In Richard Lavoies the Motivation Breakthrough: 6 Secrets to Turning on the tuned-out child proves techniques and strategies based on six possible motivational styles that will revolutionize the way parents and teachers inspire kids with learning disabilities to succeed and achieve. It promotes better communication, improvement through goals, and respect of the student. It provides an idea rather than the reward system. I think the value of this book lies in teaching people that what motivates them does not necessarily motivate their kids or any other person for that matter. That some information provided for parents should be read by the teachers and some provided with practical information only for teachers to use in their classrooms should…

    A teacher’s goal is to maximize his or her student’s potential. Traditionally, the biggest challenge for students with disabilities was to meet their needs in the areas of social, behavioral, cognitive, perceptive and motor skills (Adebisi et al. 14). A learning disability is defined by the Schwab Foundation as a person who is diagnosed by a professional with a difficulty as a result of a CNS dysfunction in the areas or reading, writing, math, science, reasoning speaking, or listening. In order to meet the diverse needs of these students, they were traditionally removed from the mainstream classroom and placed in a separate classroom to learn. Although this was the best way to meet the students’ academic needs, their social needs were grossly…

    Introduction Since the passage of the Education of All Handicapped Children Act, now codified as IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act), No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and the required adequate yearly progress (AYP), students are being served in various ways and the United States is striving to improve the quality of the educational practices and academic outcomes for students with disabilities (Palmer, 2015 and Stoutjesdijk, Scholte, & Swaab, 2012). In an attempt to meet the mandates of NCLB and IDEA, educators must address impediments to special education student’s academic achievement. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate how culture, specifically special education culture is keeping students with a disability from achieving academically. In the United States, there are many cultures and many…

    Nature versus nurture in early childhood education has been an ongoing debate for a very long time. Presently we are not sure which human development works better, as both nurture and nature seem to be a vital importance in the role of human development. Nature can be defined as genetic inheritance or the genes in which a person inherits from both parents at the time of conception and carries throughout life, in contrast nurture can be defined as the different environmental factors to which a person is subjected from birth to death such as the neighborhood you grow up in, media and peer pressure. The scholarly article Back Talk: Nature vs. Nurture in Special Education by Susan Unok Marks, brings to light three assumptions that guide the practice…

    Every student has experienced a time when they struggled in school, whether they had a difficult time grasping a concept, had trouble answering a question or was unsure how to study for an exam. These are common struggles that many students face when they are in elementary school, high school, college, and even graduate school. However, being the one student that encounters all those difficulties altogether, make it very challenging to achieve in school, especially when they are stigmatized for having a learning disability. Students with learning disabilities can either have a negative or positive school experience based on the attitudes and behaviors of their fellow classmates and teachers. These students often have negative school experiences…

    Among the advantages of inclusion system, let's consider the disadvantages the most. To the point that every children with disability needs an extra care and attention to an adult or even to a teacher for the reason that they manifest things different from the normal beings. They may manifest behaviors that will require attention and will result into behavioral difficulties (Comfort, 1988; MacCoby, 1983; Roedell 1984). Each student have their extraordinary behaviors which makes a teacher's mind divided into two portions, (1) to understand special children and (2) to manage normal students.
