They're YOUR kids, MSB...when are they NOT at least somewhat challenging???

Never forget the first time I remember you from D*C 2007... "I had to leave a note for my sub...don't let insert-name-here go to the bathroom without checking his pocket for matches, he likes to set things on fire"

Hi Hobbleit... how goes the driving??

HUGS Phoebe.. yeah my sub notes strike fear( not because of me , but because my kids are.. different) My fire setter is doing better... unfortunately one of my kids has decided biting others is a good way to express anger( no I don't teach little kids..the kid in question is 13 she's just kind of violent)

Kelkhil- HUGS yeah takes some getting used to . How is Laurelin doing??? Thanks for the diet cokes ( and the martini which I will need after this day finally ends)

Just found this on old thread. They are well, the littlest had air bubble trouble last night, kept waking up to cry, fuss, flail, and get us up to hold her and pat her tummy. For the holiday, the cousins came over, so it was over-stimulation city! They went to sleep pretty well that night. If only they would every night!

Do you realize that your signature takes up nearly an entire screen page by itself? And that your signature is about 10 times larger than any actual content in your posts?

Just curious.

This is something I've been noticing a lot lately. And maybe this belongs in the Imponderables thread more than here... but... for fuck's sake, why do people need such huge fucking signatures? Am I missing something here? I genuinely do not understand.

Actually, I did notice, hence the much reduced, slimmer sig. And no malice detected.

Hey all,

so I have had a fun couple of days, sure endoscopys are worse but having a tube up your nose and fed into your stomach for 24 hours is less than totally comfortable. I know there are kids who have it permanently as feeding tubes (the other half used to do a lot of special needs cover when she was working as a nursery nurse) so was trying not moan too much about it but failed miserably. Ended up sat watching Magnolia in the afternoon.

Anyhow, yay drugs and work!

Hey guys! Talk about an appropriate bar title! I'm going to try to post more this week. I'd hate for you all to forget who I am!

Gee - sorry to hear about the tubage. Sounds deeply unpleasant. As does chopping your toe open but you seem happy about that for some reason (guess pain is relative). I'll try to PM you tonight.

MSB - sorry you have a biter. I have a couple with anger management issues. It's not much fun. She's never tried to bite you has she?! I had to hand my class over to a sub today so that I could have an hour and a half of personal tuition on assertiveness training from a management consultant. I tried to see this as a possitive but it really felt like a bit of a waste (and also a bit of a character assassination too!). The lady was very nice but used to dealing with subtle ways to control reasonable adults and couldn't give me an answer as to what is the best way of stopping someone punching themselves until they bleed.

Hobbleit - so nice to hear from you again. What are you up to now you're a graduate? Are you working yet (or have I asked an impolite question?)

HUGS Em oh the joy...teacher training...horrible pointless teacher training... Just endure. It's always so nice when those experts take time out of their busy schedule to tell us how things should be when they have absolutely no experience with it.
As for the one punching himself. I'd pull him out of class, let him know that you consider his behavior self mutilation and that you'll need to report this to his parents and a psychologist ( or whatever counseling system you have) trust me, he'll stop or he will get help ( if he's genuinely trying to harm himself)
Also you might try the yellow sticky. Take a post it and cut 3 slits to the midpoint. Place it on problem student's desk. Tell him " these are your 3 chances" If you disrupt I will tear off a strip, if you argue I'll tear off another. When you are out of strips you will lose your points for the day and I will call your parents ( or office referral or whatever punishment you want)" Then do it. First time the kid steps out of line, don't speak to or acknowledge him, just tear a strip. If he argues, tear another without comment.
I like to start by announcing to the class that I don't have time to waste on their behavior problems and I don't intend to. Then I put the yellow stickies on each kid's desk, explain the system, and start teaching. After the first 3 or 4 kids get sent out and punished, the rest figure it out... oh and I tell them they can save stickies for extra credit.

Some very good ideas there (and I didn't need to spend an hour and a half in private coucelling to receive them!), thanks MSB. I have a similar system with my kids, verbal warning then their name goes on the board then gets circled and they have to stay behind for a 'chat'. Problem is I tend to forget who I've warned. The sticky idea is a good one for my poor memory.
I am constatly trying to find punishments that they actually care about. I'm very up front with them that if they treat me with respect I will do my best to help them do well but if they disrupt the class I will go out of my way to make their life less fun! Sitting with them at lunch is fun but sadly I rarely get time for lunch, and if so it is just 5 minutes at my desk!

Is anyone else counting the days to Christmas with a mixture of longing and dread? Longing because I'm so tired and need a break but dread because I have NO presents yet. It's my neice's birthday next week too and she is at that awkward age (13) where what she likes keeps changing every week! No idea what to get!
