Project so far

Right now I don't feel like I'm being able to spend as much time on this project as I would like to. I find myself focusing on so many other things that this project seems to continuously be in the back of my mind. Hopefully over the next couple of weeks I will be able to get more things done with this project. I also just got a new student that has severe behavioral problems and I have been mainly focusing on trying to get this student adjusted to the classroom environment.

March Reading

For this reading, I definitely found the section on disruptive behavior the most helpful. In my classroom I have a couple of students who are constantly disrupting the class. One student in particular, who I consider the "class bully" is constantly making noises. It is very annoying to myself and the students who consistently ask him to stop making those noises. From what I've noticed the student is most likely doing this for attention, but I am still not sure about the root of the cause. Right now the student and I are really focusing on him using his self control. When he hears "I need you to use your self control," he becomes aware of his behavior and usually makes a change. Now that I have a plan for his issues with making noises, I need to tackle the bullying that he has been doing to other students.
