Case: Purposefully Being Disobedient
In a class I was an intern for, there was a young boy who would purposefully not follow directions given. For example, when told to create a poem with a drawing, the student wrote a poem and turned it in with no drawing. The teacher asked the boy to create a drawing, and about one minute later, the boy came back with pencil scribbles all over the paper. Mind you, this student has plenty of his artwork on the wall (along with his other classmates) and seemed to be in a hurry throughout this behavior. The teacher let him know the drawing must be done with the supplied crayons and must represent his poem. Finally, he turned in a beautiful assignment. What do you think could be causing this behavior and why?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have a first grader who does this. I find the best solution is to find subjects that get him excited (for him he absolutely loves trains) so I will let him (and the other students!) base the project or subject when appropriate around things that make them happy or excited. I find motivation and positive reinforcement work best in these situations! Do NOT give any attention at all to the negative behavior. Instead, redirect the attention, and ask calmly for them to try again. Usually what the child wants is attention, so try to give them attention in a positive way that will make them want to participate and listen in the future. |

| Comments: I think this solution has a way of bringing together the first two solutions, which is really what needs to happen in this situation to get the student to become engaged in class, so he will listen more. It incorporates Dewey's philosophy of having students involved in the class based on their own interests, which will help them to learn and something that the teacher can over time alter as well, to ensure that they are staying on track while being interested in the subject. |

| Comments: I think this is a really helpful solution and it shows how much the teacher cares about the student by paying attention to what the student loves most and allowing them to create their work around that. Giving praise to positive behaviors is always helpful. |
