When I went to connect the events at Pearl Harbor with some mathematical components, he pulled the side of his eyes and made a racial based comment related to Asian people.  Upon speaking with the other adult in the room, he thought she had asked him to step outside because he called out and did not realize it was because of the racist tone of his actions.
Austin did complete the work on proportions when assigned with the rest of the class.  His answers are correct but I would like to see him show his work.  This way, if he gets an answer wrong, I can identify where the calculation error took place.

I received the 2 outstanding homeworks! Thanks for your motivation of him!

Austin did not participate much, and did not do the group exercises. I should also mention he never does his daily drill (at the start of each class).

Yes, he has told me he he doesn't want to learn Spanish. I informed him that 2 years of HS foreign language is required for graduation in MD. He told me is moving to FL for high school, and I responded that it was probably the same in FL. However, I checked it out: for a typical 4 year HS program it's not required for graduation but it is required for acceptance into state universities. (http://www.fldoe.org/core/fileparse.php/3/urlt/1112hs-brochure.pdf - page 4).]]> 2017-01-11 17:06:20 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/146577414 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/146640215 Today was a tough day for Austin. He called out, had issues with his pen and placed himself in a part of the room where he did not belong. When I asked for him to stay at the end of class so we could talk, he pulled out his counselor pass and went down to guidance. Mrs. Campbell was not down there and he stated that he completed some work. I visited him during Spanish and pointed out that I cannot offer him a safe, quiet place to go during lunch if he is going to be disruptive in class. Tomorrow is a new day!]]> 2017-01-11 19:57:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/146640215 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/146641389 Kosewicz

Hello Mr. Kennedy, I am Austin's teacher for CCR this semester. Today was our first day together. I am looking forward to working with Austin. We spent most of the period discussing rules and behavior expectations. Austin kept calling out and talking while I was talking. I explained to the students that each day they come to class, they walk in with 12 points (3 points for each of the four categories listed above CC,WC,WA, and WS). If they misbehave or don't follow an expectation, I give a warning; if the behavior doesn't stop, I then start deducting points. I record the points on BCPS One as "non-graded" along with letters (CC, WC, etc) to indicate where points were lost.
If points continue to be lost due to misbehavior throughout the week, the consequences become more severe, such as lunch detention with me, phone call home, or possibly office referral. 
Today as a "getting to know you" activity, students used Play-doh to make something representative of themselves to show the class. Austin made a gun and said he likes to shoot things. 
I appreciate your support (and this padlet for communication). I do look forward to getting to know Austin better as the semester progresses. Feel free to email bkoch@bcps.org or call if you'd like to discuss anything further at any time.

Kind regards,
Briget Koch]]> 2017-01-20 03:06:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/148269924 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/148331336 2017-01-20 12:14:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/148331336 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/148469433 Austin needed to be re-directed once today but was good in class after that.

Austin did better in class today, but still called out during instruction. Thank you for talking with him about his behavior.
Students were given a "Student Survey -About You" (see image). Austin wrote, "nothing" for most answers. I talked with him about a few of his comments, told him I was happy to hear him add, "Not yet" to answer #3.

After talking about "Growth Mindset"; the brain; and getting smarter, we played "Guess Box." Austin contributed the best questions to the class. He was the first to figure out what the box contained. I was very proud of him for his behavior and contributions in class today. 
For WC (Work Completion) Austin earned 2 points because he didn't write answers for our warm up.
He asked for an electronic copy of the "Student Survey-About You".  I only had paper copy and gave him another one. I hope to see it completed and turned in by Tuesday 1/31.]]> 2017-01-28 14:57:29 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/150039013 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/150285228 As a way to give Austin some focus for the start of class I asked him to pass out calculators.  He proceeded to give an empty calculator case to one student which lead into a game of chase.
Austin completed his CW  quickly but did not show any work.  When I asked him to show his work he crumpled and ripped up his paper.  In order to prevent his from using the app "photomath" I collected his cell phone and placed it in my pocket until the end of class.
After he finished his exit ticket he proceeded to make noise and disrupt those in the room instead of completing the HW which had been provided.

We did speak after class about trusting and believing reliable sources of information.  A paper ball was thrown by a student and that student claimed it was thrown by someone else.  Austin believed them and threw the paper ball at the other child.  This almost lead to a physical altercation between them in class.  I encouraged him to evaluate the source of information  before responding and reacting.
I also asked Austin about a conversation he and another student had with the guidance counselor recently that was related to my class. The guidance counselor told me they stopped by but did not go into details to maintain her professional code of confidence.

Austin helped get the class quiet after the bell. He listened politely and attentively to the directions for today: They had one class day to work on a "vacation" itinerary to a Spanish-speaking country and written in Spanish. I provided Austin and others without them computers to use, which were necessary for the project. After 10 minutes or so, as I was answering questions and ensuring all were on-task, Austin was "checking his grades" and I saw BCPS One open.

Austin continues to struggle with being quiet at times when it was necessary. Today we took a quiz, which he took with Ms. Herman outside the room. When he returned to the room other students were still working on the quiz. I asked Austin to remain quiet and complete his motion puzzle. He could not do this. Every few seconds he was saying something and it disturbed others trying to focus nearby. I spoke to him 4 or 5 times about this and his behavior did not change. ]]> 2017-02-07 19:53:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/152283441 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/152427419 I addressed these problems with Austin when he came home yesterday rather vehemently 😡, I will continue to try to talk with him and remind him what needs to be done at school.

On my first visit to him he said he didn't care if he had help or not and didn't seem to be concerned that nothing was correct. The second time I checked in with him, he said he would like some help and we reviewed the instructions and the model answer. It seemed to click and he redid the quiz. I just now quickly looked at his answers. He seemed to start off pretty well but then again didn't follow the directions.

Thanks for talking with Austin.]]> 2017-04-04 20:18:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/164734926 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/164754197 Hi Mr Hegmann, we can try Wednesday through Friday this week, next week will be spring break.

Weds - today Austin continued a pattern of respectful behavior, positive and active participation with partners and groups. I hope that his completion of individual work will also improve. I'm really impressed with his dedication to show his best behavior and self-control.]]> 2017-04-07 15:18:07 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/165410773 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/167859945 Work Completion: 0    Conduct: 1    Working with Adults: 2    Working with students: 0
Austin started class today by calling someone an a__hole because the student closed the door that I have repeatedly asked everyone not to use (because it's a little crowded with my cart). Then he disappeared from class and came back a couple minutes after the bell. Both of these issues had disappeared from his behavior for many weeks now. He did not participate nor do any classwork; he disassembled and reassembled his pen and drew. These past few weeks he's done so well I tried to encourage him to continue on that positive pattern and not resume his previous patterns.]]> 2017-04-24 15:08:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/167859945 bkoch https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/167978426 CC-3

Austin arrived on time and took out paper and pencil for Cornell Notes. Students had the choice to keep their notes to bring back next class or give to me to hold. Austin kept his paper. I'm hoping he will have it when I see him again Wednesday.]]> 2017-04-24 22:04:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/167978426 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/168145280 A better day - We had a quiz. Austin was mostly quiet and while I'm sure he could have done better, he did attempt the quiz and remained in his seat. He was also on time for class.]]> 2017-04-25 15:38:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/168145280 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/168720953 Conduct - 3, Work Completion -3, Working with Adults - 3, Working with Students - 3

Austin worked very well today. He was on task and completed his work. He even redirected a student to continue working like he was. ]]> 2017-04-27 18:12:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/168720953 bkoch https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/169472567 CC-0

Austin had an incident in class where he hit another boy over the head hard with his binder. The other boy was in tears. I asked Austin why he did it, he said, "Cuz he pissed me off." Austin was sent to the office. We're still trying to get to the bottom of it.]]> 2017-05-02 16:14:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/169472567 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/169893311 2017-05-04 11:02:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/169893311 bkoch https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/170075329 Thanks for your message. Due to all-day PARCC testing, students went outside for a break during this class. Mrs. Burch has been busy with managing school-wide testing, so we haven't had a chance to talk about the incident. Austin did well playing with other boys outside today. ]]> 2017-05-05 00:17:47 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/170075329 as755 https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/1586547106 Not my conversation or issue, but from a third person's perspective this is bizarre. With all due respect, your methods of "teaching" students is horrible. Kids don't develop behavioral issues just because they feel like it. Has it ever struck you that perhaps he had issues had home? Self-hatred? Bullying? Loneliness? Why isn't it enough of a reason to get mad when someone pisses you off on purpose? To the Austin's parent, has it ever crosses your mind that perhaps the "victim" intentionally struck a sensitive spot to get a reaction from him? It's easy for adults to tell students to ignore it but that's not how it works. In real life situations you're seen as a pussy and all respect for you is lost. Not to mention the rumors that get spread. You're now the school's personal punching bag, emotionally or physically. I'm not expert, and I certainly don't know anything about you or your child. But this is going to take you no where. Silicott, if I am understanding this correctly he called a student an asshole because they used the door you told them not to? The language he used is less than ideal but how could you punish a kid for being on your side?  
Lengthy talks won't work. Neither will beatings, punishments, and removal of electronic devices. He's not a little kid who needs to be reminded of his duties. He knows, just chooses to ignore them. Yelling and trying to forcefully make them to their work not only increases their hatred for it, but also the teachers, the students who are able to do it, and mostly importantly YOU. I'm a student who excelled in all her tests and report cards. I gradually got frustrated because of school and home issues, and instead of someone asking me earnestly if I was okay, I was labelled to have "behavioral issues" and my entire family was notified. On top of that, the counselors and principal who I got along with well turned on me and  threatened to drop my classes from dropped from GT to Standard. What kind of adults are you if the only way to help a child is by punishing it? Detentions, talks on how what they did was bad, punishments. Not to mention how Austin was probably an outcast. And before you tell me that the guidance counselor tried talking to him let me tell you, it's extremely hard to find a counselor who actually gives a shit and isn't following the scripted lines they learned back in college. No kid wants to open up to them. Also I noticed you only seem to talk to Austin to reprimand him. That's extremely unhealthy and toxic. Talk to him about things other than his school life.
Wow Silicott, the kid was looking up Sesame Street characters. He's commit a crime. Cut him some slack, at least he tried to do the project. Even minimum efforts should be noticed and encouraged. And by that I don't mean the classic, "Good job! I hope you're able to finish it by Friday." or "Wow, it would be great it you bring this type of energy to class everyday!" Just an earnest compliment that doesn't include any big talk. Tomorrow's class can be addressed tomorrow. Talk to them based on the grade level they're at. "Woah, the animations you added to that slide looks cool." or "I didn't know that template existed. It's fits perfectly with ____". The small things matter.
Nonsensical behavior. That's one way to put it. It may seem "nonsensical" to you Ms, but have you tried to actually get to know your son? The teachers tell you everything he does, but have you ever asked him what he did? And no, I don't mean the fights or the disrespectful remarks. Something on the lines of, "I heard _____ event was today. Did you have fun?" or "You didn't understand the Spanish lesson? Well truth be told I don't know Spanish either. Even though I'm not much help, let's both sit down after dinner and try to crack that assignment." Motivating someone is not the same thing as continuously punishing them. There are other ways. For example, if Austin loves playing soccer, try to use it in your daily life. "Well think of group projects as a game of soccer. You can't make it to the goal by yourself, right? Plus you need an offense and a defense. If you don't participate then sure, you'll get the grade but you won't feel accomplished. Sometimes you fall and bruise your knee while on the field, but that's all apart of becoming a better player. It's better to have teammates who can't help you up once you fall. It's  lonely when it's just you. So try to be a little less mean to the ones around you, and you might just be surprised on how close you get." I would try to give an example of Football, but frankly I don't know crap about the sport. But still, try to involve the few things he cares about.
To me it seems like Austin has trust issues. Rightfully so, seeing how you sent his answers to the survey to all his teachers and guardian. Forcing him to take the survey is quite cruel, don't you think? 
I see in the beginning of the school year other teachers put in their 2 cents as well. "I visited him during Spanish and pointed out that I cannot offer him a safe, quiet place to go during lunch if he is going to be disruptive in class. Tomorrow is a new day!" Wow. The kid already hates your class and you tell him that. Now I'm in no way whatsoever trying to validate all of his actions but sheesh, it seems like everyone is more focused on trying to get him to complete his work than to actually make him learn and trust you. Last time I checked, telling them straight up that you're not going to help him anymore isn't how you gain someone's trust. That optimistic comment at the end doesn't help any, mind you. Also, sugar coating it isn't hiding the truth Ms, I don't know what you're trying to achieve here. 
This discussion took place 4 years ago, so I don't expect a reply honestly. But still, the teachers and the student were both wrong in more ways than one, and I feel that it's about time everyone should accept it. Well, this is just my opinion so take it with a grain of salt. Have a nice day~]]> 2021-06-05 02:13:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sherman1981/AustinK/wish/1586547106
