3.4.7 SOCIOGRAM

A useful and effective tool for analysing relationships within a class group is the sociogram. By asking pupils a few questions, it is possible to arrive at a graphic representation that highlights the position of each pupil within the group.  This makes it possible to develop a greater internal balance and to help some children solve their socialisation problems.

The questions are as follows:

1- During break time, who would you choose to play outside in the garden? (choose two classmates)

2- During break time, who would you not choose to play outside in the garden? (choose two classmates)

3- If the teacher made you choose, who would you want with you to do a pair work? (choose two classmates)

4- If the teacher made you choose, who would you not want with you to do a pair work? (choose two classmates)

Now create a table (sociometric matrix) and a target sociogram, as in the example below.

Generally, five different positions emerge:

Starting from this breakdown, you can act to investigate the factors that create isolation and marginalisation, working to foster greater cohesion within the classroom context.
