I'll be the first to admit that even after 13 years of teaching, classroom management has never been my strong suit. Right now I'm struggling to manage disruptive behaviors in one of my 9th grade World History classes. It seems like every day, a group of 6-7 students in the class of 27 talks through directions and can't keep from touching each other despite redirections. With so many off-task, it's hard for me to continuously redirect and I feel like the remaining students are always getting punished for the behavior of a few. What has helped other teachers in this kind of situation?
