How do disruptive students affect the class?
Disruptive students interfere with the teacher’s ability to teach effectively. The behaviors require large amounts of the teacher’s time and attention. If the disruptive behavior is threatening, it may challenge the teacher’s authority and can create tension in the classroom, which pushes learning to the background.
How do you describe bad behavior from your students in missives?
I often hear from teachers who in long missives describe awful behavior towards them. They describe angry, argumentative, and aggressively disrespectful students. Students who tell them off and try to disrupt and sabotage their class.
How do you deal with disrespectful classmates?
It takes warm compassion in the face of disrespect. It takes standing alongside them rather than opposite them. You have to prove to them through your words and actions that you’re in their corner and that your modes of accountability aren’t personal, but are for the benefit of every member of the class—including them.
What are some examples of bad behavior in the classroom?
Students who roll their eyes and refuse to look at them or listen to their directions. They go on to talk about how nothing works. How every day with 10-20\% of their class is a battle. How behavior is getting worse, not better, and that these particular students don’t care a whit about grades, consequences, or anything else.
What are the signs that a teacher is failing his students?
They called out during lessons and made inappropriate comments. They played off one another and held little regard for his expectations. Most distressing, when he’d confront them or attempt to hold them accountable, they would become disrespectful. They would argue and complain. They would lie and deny.
