Building that kind of relationship can also help you separate the student from the behavior, so to speak, in your class. Makes it easier to deal with the challenging behavior without taking it out on the student - keep after it!Dr. Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711214087414745465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725285395319049030.post-3412945805607481332009-10-03T19:40:27.252-04:002009-10-03T19:40:27.252-04:00I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes I feel li...I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes I feel like all me and a certain student will do is butt heads. Then when I see them around school, they have a really positive reaction to me. Of course my reaction is complete shock, but I use that out of class relationship as a tool inside the class. I approach them with the "you don't have to mark your territory in here, it's all of our territory." It seems to work, so I try to be as visible as possible to my students outside of class, so perhaps we get other opportunities to interact. It's a shame how many of my colleagues stay locked in there own little space, when a simple stroll through the halls could make all the difference.Halhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04583149546682961802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725285395319049030.post-39826865965744535012009-10-03T12:21:39.036-04:002009-10-03T12:21:39.036-04:00Yay for Melissa.
