  Case: Calling Out
Our class rules state that students must raise their hands before answering or speaking in class. I have an ESE student that is very intelligent and likes to answer all of the questions, but is constantly calling out before other students have a chance to raise their hands. I have tried reminding him of the classroom expectations, but the issue still remains. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Perhaps it would be more effective to practice a reward system when he follows the rules and allows his peers to answer questions also. Each time he raises his hand instead of calling out, he could earn a point which can lead to a special prize or activity at the end of the week. Or, you could talk with him and let him know that you will not accept shouted answers, they will be ignored and someone who raises their hand will be called on. Then just push through that scenario a few times until he can see that he is not getting attention when he chooses to not follow the rules.

Comments: Positive attention is always better than negative attention. I think the reward system is a wonderful idea that will encourage the child to follow directions and overall increase better classroom behavior.
