She will crawl on the floor, make disruptive noises, and refuse to comply with the teacher. What are some ways I can help this situation? My teacher has tried a lot of strategies.                 Submit a Possible Solution Please read response(s) below (if any) before posting your solution.                 Solution 1 Posted February 22, 2019 1:37 am zuMuGe Reps: 203 A behavioral chart might work well with this student or some type of sticker system depending on her age. If she has a good week then she can be offered some kind of incentive such as extra technology time, lunch with the teacher, or maybe depending on your school she might be able to play a board game with someone of her choosing. Another idea might be to give her the choice to change the behavior as this might allow her to feel more in control.

A behavior chart or checklist will be a great way for the student to focus on having good behavior throughout the day!   Posted on: October 8, 2020 4:21 pm Add a Comment                 Solution 2 Posted February 23, 2019 8:54 pm HaJeRe Reps: 204 There definitely needs to be some sort of way that this students behavior can be tracked and also in a way that the parents are able to see so that maybe at home they can step in and explain that these sort of reactions to not getting her way is not ok. Positive reinforcements can help of course, but the parents need to be involved and aware of what is going on.

Throughout the day, keep track of the students willingness to comply and behave in the classroom. Have an incentive/reward for the student for going all week without breaking the classroom rules or being disobedient or disrespectful to the teacher. With students with this disposition, it can be quite difficult to narrow down what will work with them. If she is showing signs of a disability, I would recommend discussing with the teacher whether or not it is time to start collecting for this student and writing up paperwork for her.

This way she is not looking for that immediate feedback constantly, but still understands that you are recognizing her good deeds!

You can use this info to monitor students and let parents know about their students education.

Having a visual of her progress may give her the incentive to keep up the good behavior. If her misbehavior continues I would separate her from her peers or sit her closer to you or the teacher. If solutions still aren't successful, parent involvement may be necessary.

The classes I've interned in use ClassDojo and kids love it! I've seen it work really well with a lot of students. Teachers are constantly giving praise and pointing out behavior that they like. It seems like she wants attention, and it doesn't matter to her how she gets it. So maybe if you praise everyone a little more, she'll start understanding that positive behavior gets the attention she needs.
