Punishing the problem
People develop personal beliefs and philosophies as they grow up and mature through life. These philosophies can be brought on by certain events that have occurred or even just personal goals you have set for yourself. For me, my personal philosophy is that teachers should punish the student, not the class. When it comes to school, I am a very obedient person who would rather follow the rules than cause trouble for the teacher. However not everyone has this same belief. Many students think teachers are below them and treat school as social hour. These types of people usually cause the teacher to become impatient and angry. Most teachers would just deal out punishment to the problem student and be done with the situation. This is not the case for all unfortunately. …show more content…

With causing problems for others in the class. This philosophy is mostly based on that I am a logical thinker and like to take the most efficient solution to a problem. Now I understand the whole idea of “you are only as strong as your weakest link”, but my problem is I am not the one causing trouble. I am not the one being rude and obnoxious to others. If a student makes the choice to misbehave then punish them, not the rest of us. I feel that my choices have consequences, so if my choice was a poor one, then I should face the consequences. This situation occurred once during ninth grade with a teacher I didn’t particularly like. The problem student was constantly disrupting here and spewing out profanity after being told not many times before. The teacher reached the end of her limits and snapped. She said “fine if you want to disbelieve like this, then the whole class will stay back 5 min and I will add an extra page to tonight's homework”. This statement was received with a multitude of groans and angry students. Now the teacher might have thought that if you punish the whole class for one's actions, then the one causing problems will feel sympathy for the

Not students. Teachers.” This may cause the principle to get involved, if the teachers are not providing a good positive example, then the students will just follow and never be able to learn and succeed. If the student is doing all their work and still not succeeding in their classes, the teacher who is showing such habits must be distracted from their job.

I would guide the students to create consequences that they feel are fair and just. An example would be if I asked the class, “what should the consequence be if someone were to hit their friend?” An expected answer would be, “say sorry, and sit in time out.” I would guide children to develop consequences that would include scenarios for abusing school property, not using time wisely, being distracting, being disrespectful, and being irresponsible. The consequences that might be established could include, a cool down time, loss of privilege, moving to a quite area, or in severe circumstances contact a

As aforementioned, I would collaborate with my students about the type of consequences that they would have if they made poor choices that broke one of the rules. The type of consequence that I would use the least in my classroom would be the conventional consequences. In my opinion, removing students from the learning environment, unless absolutely necessary, is a disservice to students. This is not to say that some of the consequences may remove students from their working environment, because they might, but students will always be in the classroom. To better explain my point, consider the following example: Joe is working with his group during math centers, and he begins to throw the manipulatives at his classmates.

What if one student in the fight had a good home life, his parents punished him, and he never got suspended again, but maybe the other student’s parents did not care, he would just simply get some time off of school, and continue to act out. If all students were talked to about what they did wrong and punished inside of school, there may be a chance to drop the percentage of kids that get in trouble. Yes, it may not be the school’s responsibility to punish the kid, but if they do not and neither do the parents, then who will? Giving out school suspensions may give the student that needs to be punished the most, time off from school, which is what they would prefer. It is time schools take more part in consequences with

One reason why the zero tolerance rule should be eliminated from our school rules is because as kids we sometimes don’t make the best decisions because we don’t know what to do or how to act.
