He doesn't get to work when he comes in the classroom, he won't stay in his seat and he insists on bothering other students. He is mainly this way when he first comes in in the morning. I am not sure the best way to handle this, any advice? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) In my opinion this is something that should be handled within the first few weeks of school. Many people have said to give the student a classroom job but I believe in doing so the student may feel like they are above the rules or other students. I think the teacher needs to enforce consequences right away. If the student has consequences from the get go of this behavior they may forget it or lessen it in the long run. I think it is important for the teacher to be consistent and not allow for special situations. Students need to come into the class, be seated and begin their morning work. Do not budge, continue with your teaching and address misbehavior later in the 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 agree with this solution, every student should know the morning routine of coming in to class and unless he is diagnosed with something that keeps him from doing this, which I don't see anything like that, he should know how to do this without special treatment.
