Unit 6 Writing Assignment
· Assignment (50 points)
· Prompt: Assume Student A and Student B are in your classroom. Apply what you have learned from the IRIS Center Module and our text to reflect on the following student behavior scenarios:
· Student A is texting during a review for an exam.
· Student B physically intimidates other students.
For each scenario, discuss the following:
· Which interventions or actions could you use to influence the student to behave appropriately? Explain your choices.
· Which logical consequences would be appropriate?
· Which domains of Social-Emotional Learning could be utilized in your instruction to support the student’s appropriate behavior in the future? Explain how the SEL domains will help.
· How would you use your relationships with the student, family members, or professional colleagues to prevent this behavior from reoccurring?
· Requirements: Be sure to reference the Levin & Nolan textbook, the IRIS Center resources, and the K-12 SEL Guide Book, as appropriate, to support your choices. Include an APA-formatted cover page, citations (where appropriate), and a References page.
· Length: long enough to cover each topic, short enough to be interesting.
