  Case: Too many reminders?
I am working in an SVE classroom this semester with middle school students. One of our students with Autism has a problem with becoming very silly at time, and can be very noisy and disruptive. We have come up with positive reinforcements that he really wants to work for, but he still needs reminders at times. To me, it does not hurt to give a student reminders that he needs to control himself, but when do you draw the line and try another option? The student has been able to re-diret himself and get back on task, and I would much rather have that then have to have him removed from the classroom for being disruptive.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If the current system is working for you and the student then I do not see and issue with changing the way you are working with him. It is a lot less effective for him by sending him out of the room.
