Time-Out
I have a student who very often has to go into time out during extra curricular time, because not listening or fighting with other students. Every time the student has to go into time out he cries and cries and cries. I feel bad but he has to learn. I am not sure how to handle this situation.

Have you tried implementing a behavior management plan to try and correct the problem? You could provide positive reinforcements for appropriate behavior of listening during class and getting along with their classmates.

I agree that positive reinforcement will work, but I believe that problem students need to feel needed. Give this student responsibility. Let him enforce class rules during extra curricular time. This may help him avoid breaking the rules he is enforcing.

I would work on creating a behavior plan and talk with the student alone to set goals and reward him for positive behavior.

If I were in this situation I would do the same thing. developing goals for the student is important for resolving behavioral problems.

You should implement an individualized behavior plan for the student. Have positive reinforcement and consequences, with specific, outlined guidelines for each to occur. These guidelines and a chart with their good and bad behaviors to be tracked should be posted on their desk or binder. The student should be removed rather than having a time out in the classroom.

I would talk to the student and possibly hold a meeting with the parents. I think by understanding the student why they act out can help you keep this student out of trouble.

I would reach out to the parent and see if they deal with similar behavior at home or if they are only experiencing this in the school. Depending on that answer could help with the next plan of action. If the parents are unwilling to help or can't be reached I would try to understand the way the student is feeling and try to help them stay on a positive path in any way. Let them know when they are doing a good job and help to keep them focused on doing so.

I would handle it just as you would if you were his mother; allow him to cry, no matter how annoying it may be. eventually, he/ she will learn that they must behave in order to have their extra curricular time otherwise sitting out is what he/ she will continue to do.

There needs to be a behavior plan put in place. Rewards and consequences put into place along with it.

I think a behavior management plan is best in this situation. Use positive reinforcement. Maybe try implementing a punch card or reward system.

I feel instead of a time out, you should determine the cause of the behavior. In regards to fighting with other students, maybe you could teach him social skills around resolving conflicts. Also, you could use the strategies self-evaluation (assessing if the behaviors he engages in are appropriate is or not) and self-instruction.

Since this student is in time out constantly, this child needs a more serious consequence. Maybe this child is suffering a behavior problem, however, I think a more serious consequence needs to take place.

Putting them in timeout is probably making them happy since they are getting to miss curricular time. I do not agree with this strategy.
