1/3
Talking is one of the main misbehaviours that occur in the
classroom that we observe.
Talking actually means to communicate or exchange ideas. Based
on our observation during
SBE, we can see that this misbehaviour always happen in every
class. The reason why thisproblem happen because children have the
ability to talk incessantly. It is like common for
teachers to find students talking at improper times in
classroom. Based on our observation
they usually talk when the lesson begin. These students actually
will disturb other students.
Usually students that sit next to the talking students will
become the victim. Some of them
will listen what have been said by their friends. But there are
also several students that no
interest the thing that their friends said. While in class,
students are supposed to be listening
to teacher and supposed to pay attention to what he or she is
teaching. It is like talking over
someone in a conversation it is very rude and
disrespectful.Students talking in class withoutpermission are
distracting to both the teacher and other students who are
learning. When
students talk in class it disrupts the entire lesson. Not only
the student itself will not
understand about the lesson that has been taught but their
friends also will not understand it
because they are talking in classroom.
The reasons why children talk in class may include children
having short attention spans or
the many distractions present about the classroom. When children
are talking in class, they
are also satisfying a need. Just as anyone would look for a
drink when they are thirsty. Thereis a large amount of time that
children just talk for the sake of talking to their peers
despite
being in the middle of a class. The content involved in these
conversations might not be
academic related. It is difficult to control this particular
behaviour because the subjects in
these conversations are usually of higher interest to the
children than the lesson itself, even
more so when concepts being taught are extremely dry or
difficult. Therefore, they require
more willpower from the children participating in the act to
remove themselves from it and
concentrate. Teachers do have the responsibility to clarify in
which situations they expect
lively discussions and when they want total silence. This would
help greatly in their lessonsavoiding an ironic scenario whereby
there is silence when they need active participation and
noise during normal times.
Second, some of the students also playing with objects and did
not hear what have been
teach by their teacher. They may become distracted in class by
playing with their personal
belongings. As example, they will play with objects on their
table even it is a pen. The reason
they playing with objects are because of their attention
span.Attention span is the amount oftime that a person can
concentrate on a task without becoming distracted. Most
educators
and psychologists agree that the ability to focus one's
attention on a task is crucial for the

achievement of one's goals. Several studies also showing that
students have attention
spans of about a minute for every year of age. Children with
short attention spans are likely
to be impatient while listening, waiting for their turn to speak
and have a hard time returning
to an unfinished task once they are interrupted. That is why
they start to playing with the
objects on their table. Such items as music players or games may
entice students to redirect
their attention away from the teacher. The best policy for
dealing with this type of
misbehaviour is to clarify to students that personal belongings
are not allowed in the
classroom. The second reason is because the student is
hyperactive. Hyperactive students
tend to have a very high energy level, act impulsively and can
be behaviourally distracting.
They may fidget, play with objects, tap pencils so loudly
against their desk that kids from
across the room look over at them.
Third, the student refuses to do any work. Based on our
observation students like this
always refuse if his or her teacher asked to do something. They
usually like to do things that
they like. They also always ignore and did not pay attention to
their teacher. If a teacher tried
to attract them by using games and music, they still did not
want to participate. Most of this
student will not do the work that has been order by their
teacher except they are being force
to do it or they will get a punishment if they did not do it.
Students that act like this actually
will not get good grades and also did not active in sports.
Besides, when we asked class
teacher about this problematic misbehaviour, the teacher said
this misbehaviour happens
because of the students did not get full attention from their
teacher. When the teacher did
not pay attention to them, they will boycott every activity that
has been taught by the teacher.
They feel that by doing that they will get the teacher
attention. When asked to begin working
they will refuse, deflect and avoid by crawling under his desk,
running around the room and
such.
The second reason why they refuse to do any work is because the
student has ADHD,
anxiety or depressions. Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD) also known as
hyperkinetic disorder (HKD) is a mental disorder. Inattention,
hyperactivity, disruptivebehavior and impulsivity are common in
Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Academic difficulties are also frequent. The symptoms are
especially difficult to define
because it is hard to draw a line at where normal levels of
inattention, hyperactivity, and
impulsivity end and clinically significant levels requiring
intervention begin. it is normal to
seen these behaviours close up and personal. These children
actually get frustrated and
believe they cant do something. Then they wont do it and they
will say See sir, I told you I
couldnt do it! Theyll look at an assignment and see how long it
is, or look at a book and flip
immediately to the back to see how many pages it is and without
reading it at all, decide they
just cannot do it. The sad part is these children are masters at
self-sabotaging. Sometimes
