  Case: Loud Lunch
I have a student that receives bad notes on his behavior at lunch. He disrupts other students and steals food. I have written notes in his planner and I have had discussions with his family about his disruptions. How do I proceed?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The class I am involved in utilizes "lonely lunch" when the students are unable to behave appropriate with their peers. It is important for the student to understand this behavior is not tolerated, and you could even pull this student away from the other students as it occurs to get your point across. The fact that is seems he has had no definitive consequences when this behavior occurs is only reinforcing it.

Comments: If they can't have lunch with their peers correctly, then they need to eat alone. After a while away you can try incorporating them back, but if it continues then you can pull them right back out again.

Comments: I like this solution the best because it gives an expectation to the students. If they do not behave at lunch and steal other students food, then they will be punished and moved away from the rest of the students. This will show the child that what he is doing is not appropriate and will not be tolerated.
