I am constantly reminding them not to shout out.                 Submit a Possible Solution Please read response(s) below (if any) before posting your solution.                 Solution 1 Posted November 14, 2022 9:05 pm qeSyJu Reps: 45 I think reminding students about the expectation before or during lessons is important and may help limit shouting out. Maybe even having a ball to pass out to students when it is their turn to talk may limit the number of shout-outs.

Not too fast in succession, more succinct and orderly. These students just want to show that they’re capable and hard working. A strategy I would implement is having a reward system but ONLY rewarding students if they raise their hand. This way, they learn that shouting out in class does nothing for them.

I would also suggest, if they are not following the expectations on purpose, to create some form of punishment. I don't mean punishment in a way that is rude or embarrassing, but I think if students are not following expectations that taking 5 minutes of recess would get them to think twice before ignoring your requests. I would also say that with adding a punishment, it takes time for students to break bad behaviors, so if you see a student correct themselves or apologize, don't use the punishment then, this is for the cases where it is necessary.

Not just them but the whole class. Give them warnings and possible consequences for if they keep doing it. This could also be a behavioral issue and should be consulted with the other teachers to see if that is something that only they do in your class or if they do it in other classes.

This would help eliminate the calling out in class.

If they keep shouting out after that I suggest writing a note home, maybe the parents can get through to them and tell them that it is disruptive and occasionally rude to shout out.

The more points the more severe it gets, less recess, up to call home.

Also, going over classroom rules before starting a lecture can be helpful. Perhaps also use a virtual hand-raise platform, one where students press a keyboard button if they know the answer and the teacher chooses the first name to pop up on the screen to answer.

If the behavior persists, involve parents or administration.

One such gesture is to raise one finger. As a reminder, post a visual indication in the classroom, such as an icon of a raised hand. When students correctly raise their hands, praise them and give them a reward to reinforce the desired behavior. Make expectations and consequences for shouting out while not raising your hands clear. Students should be encouraged to observe their peers who constantly raise their hands. Students that shout out a lot should be reminded of the rule and its significance in a private discussion.

If the student were to call out, I would ignore them and call on a student who has their hand raised and reward them. If it continuously happens, especially with the same individual, I would talk to them privately. If it continues, I would send a letter home.

Votes: +0 / -4 This Solution Is Useful   This Solution Is Not Useful   Comments posted for this solution puRyMe Reps: 101 This would probably not work, since the student would think it is okay to call out.   Posted on: July 19, 2023 5:30 pm Add a Comment                 Solution 16 Posted February 20, 2023 8:49 pm Caitlin Ferland Reps: 101 Ignore responses that are shouted out. They will get the point when they are not acknowledged. They may be upset at first but if they want to participate then they must behave in the way that has been shown to them by example.
