  Case: Body Control
I have a child who cannot control his body. He moves in his chair and likes to stand instead of sitting. When we walk in line through the halls, he stretches arms and legs outside the bounds of the line and has bumped other students before. He likes basketball and his movements mimic fake outs and dribbling. So far I have only acknowledged his actions through oral reprimands. But the behavior continues, what are recommended next steps.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
He needs to learn there is a time and place for his movements. So be sure to allow him that time and place to move around and do those things but through the halls is not one of them. Maybe creating a positive reinforcement reward system for him might be helpful.
