The same thing happens to me with ELL students and students with special needs. Since I really enjoy working with those groups and I have endorsements in those areas, I get a lot of kids that require additional support, which I love, but it's a lot of work.<br /><br />I feel like behavior issues are not my strong suit. I do think, however, that it is not entirely your job to get control of those kids. The CT should have a larger role in making sure the kids are ready to learn when you are teaching. With two teachers, I think you should have the experience in teaching and CT should handle the discipline so you don't have TOO much on your plate at once. Learning how to handle behavior problems is a must and you should gain experience in that area, but not at the expense of being able to teach a lesson and engage the class. <br /><br />How is your experience going in middle school??Sneaker Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11629970985456274562noreply@blogger.com
