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!) One possible solution for this scenario could be to add 'raising your hand' to the list of rules. If you did add this to the list of rules it is important to make it specific to the behavior you are seeing form this student. If this student breaks the rule a non-verbal cue can be given, then a verbal, and then further consequences can be taken to ensure this student understands this is not an acceptable behavior in the classroom.
