Clinical Field Experience B: Behavior Expectations/Trauma/Bullying Allocate at least 2 hours in the field to support this field experience. Part 1: Observation Request permission from your mentor teacher to observe another classroom in order to see various classroom management styles. Observe a different grade level or different classroom in the same grade level as in Clinical Field Experience A. Spend your first hour observing how the teacher incorporates group motivation and behavior expectations during instruction and/or group activities. Part 2: Collaboration Use the next hour to interview your mentor teacher about group motivation, how he or she sets behavior expectations, establishes safety procedures, and addresses trauma in the classroom. Below is a list of questions to ask your mentor teacher: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. How do you develop group motivation during classroom instruction? How do you set your behavior expectations in your classroom? In what ways do you communicate with the parents of your students regarding motivation, expectations, safety procedures, and trauma?

In what ways do you prepare your students for safety in your classroom (fire drill, lockdown, evacuation, trauma, etc.)? What traumatic events (lockdown, evacuation, abuse, students’ family member passed away, etc.) have occurred in your classroom/school while teaching? * How did you respond with your students? Ask additional questions and follow-up questions as appropriate. Note: Do not use students' real names mentioned during the interview. Part 3: Reflection In 250-500 words, summarize the interview, and how the teacher responded to bullying, trauma, and safety in the classroom. Reflect on how you will respond to bullying in your future classroom and when and how you will involve parents. What are some ways you can address bullying with the whole class? Research bullying prevention strategies and share two strategies. Explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice. Support your strategies with a minimum of two to three scholarly resources. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

Traumatic events occur in schools all across the country every day. An important aspect of classroom management is to know how to prepare for trauma and deal with what happens in the classroom and in schools. Trauma can come in many forms including school shooting, lockdown, abuse, students’ parent death, evacuation, etc. or lesser forms of trauma that can still have an effect on students. For this assignment, research a traumatic event that has happened in an elementary school in the past 5 years. Then select a generic event in order to complete this assignment. With the specific traumatic event in mind, choose a grade level (K-2, 3-5, 6-8). Conduct research and use the resources in the topic materials to determine how you would respond to this specific traumatic event and traumatic events in the future. Create an 8-10 slide digital presentation to be presented to the community, teachers in the district, and families. Be sure to take into consideration students' diverse personal and family backgrounds. Your digital presentation should address the following: • • • • • • Statement of the traumatic event (school shooting, fire, bomb threat, etc.) How to respond during the traumatic event. How to respond to students the day after a traumatic event. How to respond to and address families. How to prepare students for future traumatic events. Resources to give families in preparation of traumatic events. Be sure to include a title slide, reference slide, and presenter’s notes. Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
