As part of the internship I have to create a classroom management plan and was set to work with this student. I began the activity on a day the student was on task and ready to work. However since that day his behavior has become not only worse but he has begun threatening violence. I feel like my original plan of having the student self monitor his progress and align it with teacher monitoring is no longer work as the student will take the correction as an attack. I have been warned that this student is prone to lashing out unannounced and when have brought up my concerns have been informed that his behavior has been 75% better than in years prior and do not want to have him regress. Does anyone know of any ideas how to work with this student on his behavior in a different way? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would separate the day into three different chunks: morning, early afternoon, and late afternoon. For each time frame, this student has the opportunity to earn x amount of points- lets say 10 points. Every time the student reaches 100 points, I would provide a type of reward- something that the student likes (favorite food, computer time, etc.). This system might work well for this particular student because he has three different opportunities to earn points. If he does not behave well in the morning, his whole day is not ruined, he still has opportunity to earn a full 20 more points that day.                 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 like the idea of splitting the day into chunks. I think students can feel defeated and act out even more throughout the day if they lose their points first thing in the morning and will not have an opportunity to earn more until the next day.

The student needs to know that his actions are not appropriate and he needs to work to fix them, not to earn a treat.

In regard to the rewards, I would choose something meaningful to the student. I'd try to stay away from things that may get other students jealous.

HAving a behavioral management plan is extremely important, however, I think creating a relationship of trust and a bond with the student, will go further.
