[Oz-teachers] Qld high school behaviour mgt

[Mary Morrissey]

Peter, I have used  variation of that for years - write names on board. I indicate 10-20 spots and students fill them up as they need them. With older kids working on contracts we have a printed booking sheet they use and they write next to it what their problem is/reason for needing conference.

Hi Kylie,
 
I know the feeling. Aren't they annoying when they keep asking for help, without trying to sort out anything for themselves. I had a particularly bad Year 7 class like that one time. Ants in their pants. I actually introduced a system that a student teacher who was at our school at the time, showed me. He just brought in a clipboard with an attached pencil, and booking sheet. If a student needed your help, they did not jump up and call out 100 times until you attended to them, they simply wrote their name on the list, and you work your way down the list. A bit like taking a number at the deli counter. It seemed a bit strange at first, but it worked pretty well. 
 
Good luck with it,
 
 
Cheers, 
 
Peter

		I am just about to start my 3rd prac and I thought I might ask some advice.  



	In my last prac I had a last period Friday afternoon Dreamweaver class.  The students were a nightmare.  
	
	My biggest issue was some students consistently needed one-on-one assistance and others were ahead and trying to run riot. 
	
	what is your suggestions?

		Heaps of good ideas that seems quite simple. Not sure it will help your cause but it might help someone out there with some behaviour issues.

			Does anyone know of a high school in Qld that has made a significant turnaround in behaviour management? If so what worked for them and how do you account for the school's success.
			
			
			Thanks
