  Case: Problem Child
In my class there is a student that does not take correction well at all. He walks out of the class almost every day and is always disrupting the classroom. The CT doesn't know how to get him to stop walking out of the classroom. They have had parent teacher conferences and talked with the principal. Nothing seems to work with this student.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have a student like this in my classroom as well. There have been numerous attempts to correct or lessen the behavior. Some things work and some don't. The key is to be consistent and never give up on the student. Some strategies that have worked well for her are; behavior point sheets, break passes after 30 minutes of work, and sticker incentives. I suggest finding something that motivates the student and working from there.

Comments: I really like this suggestion. Being consistent no matter what you try is the most important. The student shouldn't know that you are easy to control after a few outbursts and it shouldn't be visible that you give up on the student, even if you do.

Comments: I think the break passes are a great idea. The student might need to just walk around after completing an assignment instead of it being his choice and disrupting the class with the pass it is ultimately the teachers choice and the student is still getting what they want as well.

Comments: This is an excellent solution for the situation. Figuring out what motivates the students, and then using this source of motivation as an incentive or reward for good behavior, may help the student stay on task and avoid walking out of the classroom. Using appropriate incentives and being consistent can help create a structured classroom environment where every student feels motivated to learn each day.

Comments: I totally agree with this solution in that not giving up on the student is absolutely crucial. I like your idea of implementing behavior point sheets, stickers, and other rewards like a treasure box that will potentially motivate the student to correct their behavior.
