Mrs. Sepulveda had issues with disruptive students talking and playing with objects during class discussions. Possible solutions include establishing a deep relationship with students so they respect the teacher, doing creative activities in class like using objects students brought from home to engage them, and creating group cohesion through activities that involve everyone. The teacher should get to know students on a human level to understand their behaviors and feelings.

- 1. CamilaVelásquezBriceño Classroom management: Case Study CASE 6 Mrs. Sepulveda repeatedly had problems when leading a class discussion with her eighth graders. No matter how involved in the topic the students were, there were usually several students sitting in the back who would talk, shout out silly answers, and play with objects they had brought from home. Possible solution: We know that being a teacher implies a great responsibility. It is important to impose oneself, to be respected and to have students respect the authority. Many times this task is not easy because the children already have some learned rebellion and are not set limits. That makes the teacher's work more complex. In this case Students were not interested and they had others distractions such as objects they had brought from home. We as teachers can find some solutions to deal with this common situation in the classroom for example:
- 2. CamilaVelásquezBriceño -Establish a deep relationship in which you get to really impact them with your behavior and your attitude towards them. This attitude allows a good classroom environment because the teacher is perceived as a good leader and students could think that they are in good hands. It is very important to recognize the students’ particular problems in order to understand their behaviors. -Accept the challenge: this is the basis. It is necessary to assume that teaching rebellious students is a challenge, not simply a nuisance to be borne. -Do creative activities in class:. Worst of all is the "predictable" teacher, who always does the same because he/she has a script learned. It is necessary to learn to surprise your students in some way to gain their respect and do not see that you are one more. If they are small, use didactic toys to illustrate your classes. Here you can use the objects that they brought from their homes. Use those objects as a realia. They will keep their attention on that due to the fact that they chose them. -Create group cohesion: this is key among teenagers, but the most difficult. Many times, groups of friends are mounted on one side and others on the other side in the classroom, leaving some less popular alone and abandoned. This is a natural tendency, but if the teacher acts as a leader, he/she can combat it by creating a group feeling with activities that involve everyone and much, much, much prompt. Ideas that can help you: prepare a play together, a football game or an extracurricular activity. - Know them: more than knowing math or language, you know, it is now necessary to know human beings, specifically children and adolescents. How do they feel? How do they act? How do they correct their mistakes? Study all you can in this sense and you will see how you perceive your class in a very different way. The key is treat all students equally.
