Where is his mentor/cooperating teacher?? 1st I will get to a point where I have the students work (activity, copy notes, etc) and quietly ask if the student is feeling sick. YES - send to nurse; NO - then I will respectfully remind them that I cannot have them sleep in class and it is not fair to the rest of us - who are all tired - to sleep in class. 2nd approach is that I pretend to trip and crash into the desk. I always get laughs with this; however, I have a great repoire with my students.
I taught in a college once, and one of my students fell asleep.......the other students noticed and giggled.....but I didn't care, I just continued on with my lecture.
lol
I guess some teachers take a more aggressive approach.
I totally agree! It's ironic because of the subject he's talking about too. The kid might have a bad home life, no telling the situation. There are definitely better ways to handle that.
Also...think about this kind of discipline 2 months from now. Students will get used to it, and they wont be scared anymore. This guy needs an ego check, and needs to remember what it's like to be a kid.

This guy actually had the balls to say something.
Different strokes for different folks.

I don't think it's right to bang the desk to get the sleepy child's attention.
