Could you help me with this please?

Question

I'm teaching English to Nursery 1. There's one student, Damian, today he scratched his classmate near the eye... It was a matter of seconds! It's the first time I teach Nursery... and it's madness... I asked him to sit down, I changed him of place, I said "Beautiful boys do not hit their classmates", I asked him to be my "Official Secretary", this last one worked for a while... but at the end of the class it happened... How should I deal with this kind of kids?

Answer 1

first of all u dumb@$$ HOE, there is NO such thing as a "kind of kid" TEACHERS SUCK THEY THINK THAT THEY CAN "classify" kids well FU** U YA HOE. "time out" is FU**N ANNOYING, just tell him to stop, if he doesnt then just ignore him, he'll stop if he doesnt get attention, oh and dont say "beautiful boys" guys r HANDSOME NOT "beautiful" U SHOULD BE FIRED 4 TRYING 2 TURN BOYS g*y HOE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Put him in time out then talked to him bout what he did and tell him what will happen if he does it again... then give him a lollypop!....SMILE!

Answer 3

Talk to the boy and ask him why it makes him happy to hurt others and see other children cry. Sometimes, they need to get the agression out of their system.  The child might be coming from a dysfunctional family, hence, more understanding and special care is needed.

In the event that it happens again, make him apoligize to his classmate and let him see the "damage" he has inflicted.

Answer 4

i would talk to the parents and work something out. If they think their child would never do such a thing try to explain to the child why what he is doing is wrong. Give him a simple punishment like a time out every time but i'd talk to the parents first. I definitely wouldn't reward him for his bad behavior.

Answer 5

give them time out or give them prizes for being good and try to bribe them a bit

Answer 6

I think you should absolutely talk to the parents. Being a kindergarten teacher aid after school,  I can say lots of parents don't even know that the problem exists. If they do know and don't do anything, then you need to let him know that what he is doing is very wrong. Make sure you put him in time out right when it happens or he will forget why he is in time out and always make him apologize to the child he hurt. If all else fail see if he can be transferred to another classroom. But make that a last resort or he'll think he's not good enough to be in your class. hope this helps.

Answer 7

this is what I suggenst.....pretend you tripped and punch him in the head...keep doing it till he learns that hitting hurts...lol

Answer 8

You are aware that you as a teacher are aloud to hit a student..maybe if he knew this he may stop,but you might want to tell the whole class this and not just him.That way he wont feel as if you have hatred towards him,who knows maybe hes a nice kid after all.

Answer 9

You could try postive behavior plans...where if he makes it for certain amounts of time he gets a sticker and after so many stickers he gets to play a little longer with a favorite toy or have a candy to take home...its bribery but sometimes you have to do what is best to maintain the rest of the classroom environment. Good luck!

Answer 10

something you can do is talk to him personally with love and ask him the reason for his mean behavior to his classmates . if he feels that what he did was correct you can make him understand that what he did was wrong. them even if that doesn't work try giving him a little more attention and behave patiently and let him understand it in a smooth manner. hope you go through it easily...

Answer 11

children like this require a lot of attention. try to keep him occupied, have him do things for everyone not just yourself this will help him learn to control this on his own. At the end of class do not give the opportunity to misbehave. Start a big project where he must keep upto date for you. Like a chore chart but not. Merely a good behavior chart for everyone. The person with the highest score picks the first song in music or so on. Children love to make choices on their own. Give this a try I can give you other options as well but this is the best. From what I have seen

Answer 12

Well i think that the best think is to pay no attention to him.He know that you are always focus on him and that's why his behavior is like this.When he will see that suddenly he is not the center of the universe he will change.

Answer 13

Sounds to me like he needs to be moved away from the other students at least to where he is far enough away from the children he is hurting and close enough to you to keep an eye on him. Don't give him a job like "Official Secretary", because he may think that he is getting rewarded, so when he gets tired of that he might do something else to see if he can get something else special.

Answer 14

It is not fair to the other kids.You give all of your attention to one kid?How about others.You need to be firm with him and panish himand give him a time out.A person like you shouldn't be so clueless and helpless.Maybe it is not a right job for you.You need to speak with the boys parents too.And ask for help from school officials.

Answer 15

You should talk to his parents. Ask them if there is anything going on in their house that may make Damian think that what he is doint is ok. If that does not work you may try to show him (Damian) and the whole class that good children get rewards.

Here's what you can do:

1. Buy a basket full of treats for the boys and girls. Make sure that one basket is for good girls and boys (the ones who recite once during your class and the ones who are not very noisy) and another for very good children (the ones who often a lot during your class whose answers are right , the ones who are very quiet and the ones who help you and his/her classmates).

2. Announce to the class that you will be giving rewards to good girls and boys.

3. Tell them if 3 kids misbehaved or 1 kid misbehaved 3 times the class will get a seatwork. But if the whole class is well behaved they will have a game, related to English of course.

4. Write letters to the parents. If their child is very good tell their parents. If their child is very bad, tell their parents.

But make sure that you also tell them that the goodies are just an extra reward. The real prize is what he/she'll be like when he/she goes to elementary school.
