Hi has anyone worked with groups of children and know how to control them?
I'm in charge with organizing games for about 25 or so kids. They are about 9-11 years old. It took me a long time to be brave in front of all them. To be honest the noise is so distracting I can barely maintain attention on them.
I try to set up some some neat games and activities, but barely any of them care and run around screaming or hitting each other. Most of my game end in chaos or people getting injured, while I slowly lose my integrity and my voice.. I have tried raising a hand silently, telling them their wasting each others time and missing out on games. I have also tried sh outing and yelling 'Quiet' but they don't seem to give a damn.
I feel they don't respect me at all, and it makes me quite angry and/or upset.
Any ideas? Having SA is bad enough but supervising an army of kids is something else!
