  Case: Blurting Out
The year has gotten off to a great start except for one thing. In one of my classes, I have a student who seems too eager to please, and blurts out answers to questions whenever I try to have a teacher-led discussion. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The rules and procedures should be set the first day of school. There should be consequences that should be followed each time the student breaks this rule. The other students should know the rules and the consequences and know that this is not allowed and if they choose to do so they will have to follow the same consequence given to this student.

Comments: I agree, being firm on the first day and setting those rules is very important! The students will soon understand that you are serious about rewards and consequences.

Comments: I like this solution. Remind the student of the consequences to prevent them from blurting out. Constantly enforcing the consequences will help students take them seriously as well.

Comments: having clearly defined rules and procedures and enforcing consequences should stop this behavior before it starts.
