Answer to Question 1

There is no clear-cut right or wrong answer to this question. On the pro side, her strategy will, one hopes, get Jason back on task during the school day. On the con side, Ms. Brown might be fueling the fire with regard to Jason's crush.

Answer to Question 2

It is not unusual for a child Jason's age to talk of love and romance. The opposite sex is often the subject of curiosity throughout the elementary school years. Ms. Brown need not overreact to Jason's profession of love; instead, she should continue to treat Jason with kindness and respect, letting him know that he is a valued member of the classroom. Ms. Brown seems to have done this while reminding Jason of his responsibilities as a student. Because corrective actions are most effective within the context of a warm, caring teacher-student relationship, this approach should ultimately be successful in encouraging Jason to complete his work.
