He does not complete his work, he distracts other students, and talks over me during class. I have exhausted all of the behavior management options I know. I have discussed behavior with him, I have sent him to silent lunch and taken recess, I have had conferences with mom, we made a behavior contract so that he could work for a reward of his choosing, he has been written up, I have spoken to him individually in both sweet and authoritative tones, I have even tried giving him different assignments to challenge him more, but nothing keeps him working. I really could ignore this behavior, except that it distracts and bothers my other students. I need help. Does anyone have a new suggestion on how to handle my unruly behaved student? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would take this to higher authority and see if they have an option they have not tried yet. Maybe if he is gifted, they need to test him for a replacement. If he is not listening to you and you have tried everything, I would no longer welcome him into your classroom until he decides to change. When he feels this sense of hurt, he may realize how badly he has hurt you and change this behavior
