  Case: redirection, redirection, redirection
Mrs. Smith has a student in her class who is consistently interrupting her during instruction. This student has been redirected several times for interrupting and not raising his hand. Being that this is not a "behavior" problem, the teacher continues to redirect. However, when does the teacher draw the line and assign a consequence? Mrs. Smith feels that the student should be accustomed to classroom procedures by this point in the school year and that failing to comply with the teacher's expectations should not be tolerated. What should Mrs. Smith do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is a problem in that it distracts the teacher from teaching and it distracts the students from being able to concentrate. We have a system set up where they receive a paper copy of their official warning for whatever behavior, in this case being distracting. Once they have received the warning, then they receive whatever the next consequence would be. For us, it is a copy sheet. And you would just continue through the chain of consequences.The child will stop the behavior from this.

Comments: I see the benefits of a system like this in the classroom. All students in the room as well as the teacher are distracted by the disruptions and it is important to let the disrupting student know that it is not allowed. Begin with a verbal warning, then move to a written, then move to more serious consequences like detention or something like that.

Comments: I like the idea of having a visual for the students' to see his/her infraction and the next step and consequence. Sometimes redirecting verbally is not enough, and it may take something more concrete for them.

Comments: This sounds as though it may be effective. I would also contact the parents if this behavior continued. Also planned ignoring also helps in situation like these. If they see that they aren't going to get attention or credit for the answers they are blurting out they might realize it is better to raise their hand and wait to answer the question.
