  Case: EBD Behavior Management System
I have seen a lot of different behavior management systems utilized in classrooms. The school in which I frequently work has a school-wide 'clip chart' system. While this is effective in the general education classrooms, it holds little meaning to the students in the K-4 EBD room. The biggest struggle that I see faced with this particular group of students is their lack of family involvement and consequences at home. Involving parents in the situations has done little to no help thus far. Most of the time, involving administration does little help, as they come back with candy or rewards for 'calming down.' All of this combined leaves the behavior management strictly up to the teacher with very little outside help.

My question is, what behavior management strategies have you seen implemented that have shown great success, especially in an elementary EBD setting?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The most appropriate strategies that I have implemented have been successful have all been work for reward based systems. You complete assignments, follow instructions and do not disturb other classmates you will receive rewards like ipad time, I try to stay away from candy rewards.

Comments: This is effective and actionable advice. Obviously, building trust is a powerful force between and student and teacher, but actually having a consistent plan for the daily swings of a classroom is very helpful.

Comments: I prefer this solution because I agree that candy as a motivator is not a good reward nor does it work for the long term.

Comments: I agree! When there is a point system in place it helps student work for something it gives them motivation. If there is a behavioral specialist at the school I would also get them involved.

Comments: Rewards are great ways to manage behavior, especially if they're something easy like extra time on the computer or reading on the floor. They can also be easy to receive, and children learn this as they adjust in the classroom!
