    Q2 What is happening in this situation? What do you see? #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:18 PM EST
    tonight's scenarios don't provide a lot of detail so it is abt how you think/react 2 what you see- #sstlap and yes Q1 was a little tricky
  • historytechie Jan 26 @ 9:19 PM EST
    A2 Try to find out what is going on. Make a deal with them? See if they understand what is going on in class? #sstlap
  • JoanneDuford Jan 26 @ 9:19 PM EST
    A1: Investigate before react. Are they playing a game or R the 2 torturing the 1? If torturing, Y? Seek the soure of behavior 2 fix #sstlap
    • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:10 PM EST
      Q1 Do you see what I see? Or better yet - what do you see? How would you react to this situation? #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:19 PM EST
    the see what is happening- investigate is key- we often assume- i asked kids questions a lot- #sstlap
    In reply to @book_techjunkie
  • acottos Jan 26 @ 9:19 PM EST
    A2: ask the student where their interest lies. Perhaps learn ways and methods that would create a desire to apply their learning. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:20 PM EST
    nice- immerse in the activity- can always find out if it was supposed to be mean later- for now redirect - i like it #sstlap
    In reply to @historytechie
  • Chucktaft Jan 26 @ 9:20 PM EST

  • Mr_Lisek Jan 26 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A1: Analyze the situation to determine if there is anger in any of the Ss actions. They most likely are playing. React if necessary. #sstlap
  • jmadlin001 Jan 26 @ 9:21 PM EST
    A2 Provide more support through choice time in class. This allows me to work w/them 1-on-1. #heuveltontech #sstlap

  • Mr_Lisek Jan 26 @ 9:23 PM EST
    A2: Assume that defiance is not the no. 1 cause of the behavior and talk to the S again. See if there is a lack of understanding. #sstlap
  • historytechie Jan 26 @ 9:23 PM EST
    A2 Do they need extra help? Let them know they can come by before or after school or Academy (like homeroom) #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:23 PM EST
    conversation- yes- find out not assuming you know what is going on with them- I found some ss homeless w/convo- changed HW policy #sstlap

  • classroomtools Jan 26 @ 9:25 PM EST
    I can't answer any question so far, because to answer I would need to know much more about the Ss involved & their backgrounds. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:25 PM EST
    great- connect with them and find their interests-- tap into them #sstlap
    In reply to @acottos
  • historytechie Jan 26 @ 9:26 PM EST
    A3 Sometimes Ss have a bad day- allow retakes for exams. Have convo with Ss. Ask how can I help. #sstlap
  • jmadlin001 Jan 26 @ 9:26 PM EST
    A2 Some Ss can't do hw at home. We have 20 min. Homerm in the morning & he club after school. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:26 PM EST
    and a lot of this is done the way many are responding- talk to ss -ask questions- the things the build relationships- we need info #sstlap

    A3: it's nobody's fault..failure is just a lesson. Teach Ss to reflect. See where they can improve...and you should do the same! #sstlap
  • JoanneDuford Jan 26 @ 9:26 PM EST
    A2: Is it a home life issue? Is the HW purposeful? Was Ss not challenged/overly challenged? Again, find the why behind the inaction #sstlap
  • Mr_Lisek Jan 26 @ 9:26 PM EST
    A3: Look at the lesson and the formative assessment data to determine if S was TRULY ready for summative assessment. #sstlap

    True, but by this time of year, we should have lots of info on indiv students, unless brand new to school/class. #sstlap

    so how do you react to a study showing up tardy? fits into our convo tonight- great to have you Amy #sstlap
    In reply to @STLinOK
  • ProfGeorgeEdu Jan 26 @ 9:27 PM EST
    A3) depends on the individual, effort in class, participation, home life, etc #sstlap
  • teachcaudill Jan 26 @ 9:27 PM EST
    A3. I wonder about this. Maybe I didn't present material well. Didn't get the kids interested. #sstlap
    In reply to @Braz74
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:28 PM EST
    so agree- by this time we should have had those convos- made those connections- should have info to help us #sstlap
    In reply to @classroomtools
  • STLinOK Jan 26 @ 9:28 PM EST
    A3: you & S should have a good idea of where they're at. Was it a preparedness issue? Misdirection? Clarity? #sstlap

    like how you take some responsibility- #sstlap
    In reply to @teachcaudill
  • teachcaudill Jan 26 @ 9:29 PM EST
    A2. I don't like homework. Don't really assign it. But sometimes things must be turned in. Have kids use a planner you sign #sstlap
    In reply to @Braz74
  • STLinOK Jan 26 @ 9:29 PM EST
    My Ss know it's all about how often & how disruptive they are coming in. Depends on the kid #sstlap

    A3 Lots of reasons Ss fail. I can help Ss review after test then retest. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:30 PM EST
    A3 as 1st yr T had colleague share ss failed his test- his response toss and reteach- his fault-didnt do good job-our job=ss success #sstlap

    Agree- tardy is not a fight I really want to engage in. Rarely have issue- Ss just get settled and join in. #sstlap

  • STLinOK Jan 26 @ 9:32 PM EST
    Exactly. Most r really respectful, few that aren't are dealt with individually. 1 rule "Don't be a butt head". Works #sstlap

    I like the reflection of where to improve- I made test and taught lessons- if ss don't know what is on test I failed #sstlap
    • acottos Jan 26 @ 9:26 PM EST

  • historytechie Jan 26 @ 9:34 PM EST

  • Mr_Lisek Jan 26 @ 9:34 PM EST
    A4: Maybe they have more of a relationship built between them, and the issue has been resolved. Not my place to intrude. #sstlap
  • book_techjunkie Jan 26 @ 9:35 PM EST
    A4 I've seen this a lot and it can be frustrating but getting better about seeing the princ & dean are meeting the S at their level #sstlap
  • kiddielitprof Jan 26 @ 9:35 PM EST
    Late again 😳🙊 A3: This was an interview question for me...if students fail that means I've failed somewhere along the way!!! #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:35 PM EST
    This is tough - i hope my admin is professional and discusses behavior- has consequence- but focuses on the kid & relationship #sstlap
  • book_techjunkie Jan 26 @ 9:35 PM EST
    A4 cont. They are working to find out the back story where many times I may see only the behavior. #sstlap
  • phhscience Jan 26 @ 9:35 PM EST
    A2 If the Ss don't understand the material why give it for homework and if the S understand the material why give it for homework #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:36 PM EST
    yes for this #sstlap
    In reply to @STLinOK
  • STLinOK Jan 26 @ 9:36 PM EST
    A4(b): So rarely send a kid down that my standing in the door is enough to make eyes get big. When I do hands are tied - auto stuff #sstlap
  • kiddielitprof Jan 26 @ 9:36 PM EST
    A4: Teacher who sent that kid down would think nothing is being done. 😕 Woukd feel unsupported. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:36 PM EST
    i like the follow up later- and common ground- if we think ss are awesome do we want horrible punishment? #sstlap

    Yes. Same with the hat issue. Security would give me side eye and make comment to my class--Not spending my T capital w/hat #sstlap
    In reply to @STLinOK
  • jmadlin001 Jan 26 @ 9:36 PM EST
    A4 I see counseling occuring. Everyone makes mistakes. If Ss returns to class & follows rules no problem. #sstlap
  • acottos Jan 26 @ 9:37 PM EST
    A4: I see an opportunity for a student to start a 2nd chance. Sometimes misbehavior is a call for help. Discussion, not discipline #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:37 PM EST
    yes- i hope admins create + relationships with ss to resolve peacefully #sstlap
    In reply to @Mr_Lisek

    agreed- especially when you had issue with ss- but if I dealt with in my class told them next day clean slate- #sstlap

  • historytechie Jan 26 @ 9:41 PM EST
    I've seen both- shenanigans and Ss seeing friend in need & helping. You get to know your Ss & difference. #sstlap

    yes- the follow up to put reality in line with potential perception is key #sstlap

      A4: Admin builds relationship. I would hope admin would follow up with me, but I wouldn't expect to see student back that day. #sstlap
  • NKleinmeyer Jan 26 @ 9:42 PM EST
    A5: I see collaboration & learning until I don't. Show trust & give them their space, if the culture is there they will be learning. #sstlap

    A5 Communication is the key to learning what ever form it takes #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:43 PM EST
    I see this a lot in my role - often student goes over to help another ss- works as expert answers a question- #sstlap
  • classroomtools Jan 26 @ 9:43 PM EST
    A5 I assume they are on task until I have evidence to show differently. #sstlap
  • Mr_Lisek Jan 26 @ 9:43 PM EST
    A5: Use proximity to scout cause for the movement. If I determine they're collaborating -- no harm, no foul. Redirect if necessary. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:44 PM EST
    yes I might ask them what is going on- or do they need some help if went on for awhile but not thin the worst auto #sstlap

    A5: I walk over and ask them to share their discovery. Don't assume it's 'inappropriate.' :-) #sstlap
  • jmadlin001 Jan 26 @ 9:45 PM EST
    A5 This happens all the time in my Classrm. Ss should be encouraged to help each other. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:45 PM EST
    so many answers are impacted by the individual student-so key is relationship- knowing ss -you guys are coming up with great answers #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:46 PM EST
    yes- accepting responsibility for own actions + or - models expectations for ss- we need to be human in front of them #sstlap

    Q6 Will this be on the test? Is this student being lazy? #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:48 PM EST
    agreed- but too often see all HW as graded as test of what ss know or can do the night the skill was taught- #sstlap

    A6 They are asking if something is important enough to engage with. If it wasn't then we wouldn't be doing it in class. #sstlap
  • historytechie Jan 26 @ 9:48 PM EST
    Depends on Ss. Some- why bother. Others see as part of the story. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:49 PM EST
    yes if we show and give trust they are more likely to live up to our expectations than trying to catch them doing bad #sstlap

    A6 If it's not on the test it's not worth learning. #sstlap
  • teachcaudill Jan 26 @ 9:49 PM EST
    A6. I ask "do you think it will be on the test?" But I don't do a lot of "normal" tests either. I'm more of a PBL guy. #sstlap

    A6: I haven't build the routines of growth mindset well enough with this S. Discuss knowledge growth w/class. It's on me. #sstlap
  • NKleinmeyer Jan 26 @ 9:50 PM EST
    A6: We don't play "hide and go learning" I want you to know what to learn, how to find it & how it will be assessed. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:50 PM EST
    A6 because they want to know is this important to learn? Why don't we explicitly share what they need to know & do to be succesful? #sstlap
  • classroomtools Jan 26 @ 9:51 PM EST
    I don't think I ever assigned make work to be done out of class. All assigns required Ss to put class inf to work in new way #sstlap

    A6: Feels like we have trained students to wonder what's on the tests by "overteaching" Essential outcomes changed my world. #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:51 PM EST
    that's what they think- how do we guide them to learning for sake of learning and focus on important things #sstlap
  • JoanneDuford Jan 26 @ 9:52 PM EST
    A5: Sneak a peek to ensure on task, but let it go. Ss should have the freedom to meet expectations w/ peer support, when needed #sstlap
  • classroomtools Jan 26 @ 9:52 PM EST
    Here is a sample of the sort of traditional textbook assignment I might give. https://t.co/6Z5UasHsD9 #sstlap

    Q7 I think this is the most important question of the night - What do you see? #sstlap
  • Braz74 - Moderator Jan 26 @ 9:54 PM EST
    yes- what if they could ask the questions- inquiry based and find the measure of their own learning #sstlap

    A7 A world of possibilities and hope that they will gain some of my passion & interest in politics #sstlap
  • JoanneDuford Jan 26 @ 9:56 PM EST
    A6: Essentially, the Ss are asking why is this information important & why they should care. #sstlap

    I see a child in my charge that wants to learn explore do &create! Someone who is awesome, full of potential and can learn anything #sstlap

    A6.2: shouldn't we be more worried about the Ss only wanting to learn to pass a test, not for love of learning? #sstlap

    A7: A child trying to make it. Often faking it until they do. One who needs support beyond academics & just wants you to believe. #sstlap
