Can you send them someplace else for the class time?
We have this system where it's (1) verbal redirect (1) Think sheet (3) safe seat (4) buddy room.
Problem? It's all hedged in with superspecific lang., and the kids take it not seriously at all, so if you want a kids out, you get the "Have you gone through The Process?" questions.
My choices in answering
(A) I have tried to process with this student, but s/he is unamenable to participating.
(b) No, I haven't. I can't shut him up long enough to send him to the fucking safe seat,
(c) No, I have concussed the unamenable child with the safe seat, and I am going to the Buddy Room. Where I devoutly hope you keep lawyers and vodka.
(d)Fuck the fucking process; take this brat out to the woodshed; I hear there's something nasty there. I hope it's hungry and a messy eater.
I like options c & d. Preferably at the same time.
Erin, I hope the class is better for you tomorrow. Maybe hand out doses of something to calm them down. (joking)
Are you allowed to throw chalk pieces in their general direction? Not that that ever happened to me in high school bio class or anything. "Oops, it slipped out of my hand"
Me, too. Le sigh.
I need a cattle prod, and some restraints. Ooh, and some of those BDSM ball-gags. About a crate of those, actually.
Maybe hand out doses of something to calm them down. (joking)
DO. NOT. TEMPT. ME.
Ahhh..."HAve some delicious candies, my darlings! Three for you, you naughty child. Ooops, you get the REALLY special candy!"
I'm a thinking a Ritalin/Xanax/THC combo.
Huh. Screw the kids; I'll just take it!
Screw the kids; I'll just take it!
Shit, yeah. Ketamine's good enough for the little shits -- keep the actual fun stuff for yourself.
tranq dart gun allowed in the school?
Just an idea. Not saying it's good or bad.
How old are these kids? And how many in the class?
Pathetic tiny kitten ahoy! [link]
Thanks for letting me vent, guys. I was in a serious rage state this afternoon. Not a great place for me to be, as I can get downright nasty in that state. I had to high-tail it outta school ASAP.
I will be good-teacher Erin and look for Proactive!Solutions!to!My!Classroom!Management!Issues! yayhappySPARKLE kidzrfun!
But right now, I need to stew in my own quinine-bitter juices of unleashed vengeful rage.
