  Case: Needs a Father Figure
I have a student whom is trying to impress me. One day, he feels bad behavior will impress me. The next day, he explains his favorite things. He disrupts lessons in order to go into detail about himself. How do I give him attention without taking away fro the lesson?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try to plan out certain times of the day that he can have one-on-one attention from you. For example, if you are on duty during lunch, sit with him at that time. During recess, play a game with him outside. You can also give him certain jobs to do during the classroom that will both help you and give him a sense of purpose inside the classroom.

Comments: I like the suggestion of walking him to class or playing at recess. Even talking to him at the end of the day or walking him to the bus would be helpful. Any gesture to let him know that he has support without taking away from the other children would be the most appropriate form of action.
