In a program to teach/help children with reading but?

am already facing problems. Instead of having one child I have three, two seven year olds and one who is nine. They are not like children I have had contact with before, apparently they are allowed to watch family guy and south park. I had to listen to a long recap of a south park that I believe dealt with a homosexual sex act that was re-enacted for me. The nine year old is testing me and a bully over the two younger ones. She says what I consider inappropriate things ( swear words and recaps of south park for example ) I let everything slide the first day but I realize I need to get a handle on the situation before it just gets worse. I was thinking I saying something in the lines of ” I do not appreciate talk/stories like that and while here with me please do not talk about adult matters or use vulgar language, if you continue too we wont be able to play the game I have planned at the end of our lesson” They are for a better word “rough” kids. How should I handle them pleas

‘Dear fellow teacher,

I have been a teacher for years of this age. They are having a grand time with you. Be very firm. In a firm, not loud voice say “You Willl not speak of those matters here. They will not be tolerated” Your parents may let you watch and do things at home that you wil not be allowed to do here. I am the one in charge here. Do you understand?

They will try to call your bluff. It’s only normal but do not back down. Threatening to take away the fun games may help but I doubt it. From the way they are talking they probably don’t care much about them. If you have your cell phone handy, call their parents immediately, in front of them. All you have to do is ask their parents to speak them about the issue right there and then. Kids don’t normally want mom or dad called. It’s worked for me great. Never had another problem.

I did not use it and by the point my dual sons had been a little bit older than your man they would do the whole thing that you are son is doing. At year they LOVED books (and nonetheless do) and might customarily sit down and “learn” them. They additionally would establish specific snap shots of chickens (one on a farm; an egg; and a roast chook on a plate) all as chickens despite the fact that they did not seem alike. I consider the YBCR generally is a useful software – however should not be used solely or with out parental interplay as good. My men watched the Baby Einstein movies (commonly no a couple of an afternoon – very occassionally 2) and discovered plenty from the ones. My challenge with the YBCR is that it does not coach comprehension – simply phrase identity. Word identity is major – indisputably. But comprehension and being capable to determine phrases established on context is much more major.
