Make eye contact, stand close to them and sometimes mention their names.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case No The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: I agree that making eye contact and waiting for their attention could be useful but getting close to them is not a great idea. That is intimidating and a little too much for this situation. Once they stop talking after making eye contact let them know they are disrupting and need to get back on task.

Sometimes that can lead to more acting out from the student Rated On: March 4, 2017 3:07 am Rated By: ReRege                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: This may not be an effective method Rated On: March 5, 2017 1:15 am Rated By: detyny                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I agree that sometimes all it takes is walking up close to a student to end the talking.

Often students will need a reminder or a motivation to be quieter.
