  Case: Defiant for anyone other than their teacher
The students in my class are very well behaved for their teacher but any time someone else is in the room watching them they mis behave. How can I better manage this behavior?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If it is a substitute or intern watching over the class without the teacher present I would begin with going over the rules and expectations and be honest with the kids in the fact that you are not their teacher, but you want to help them just as she does so open yourself up to them by allowing questions or even giving them some personal attention. Students respect their teacher because they have built a relationship and an open safe line of communication, while this doesn't happen overnight students can sniff out a genuine attempt to help and relate to them and will respect the effort and in turn work for a new person if they make the honest effort. This has worked for me with various grade levels when I had to step in place of the teacher.

Comments: I like this idea a lot. When kids feel like the other adults care and really want to know them they tend to respond better. Respect breeds respect.
