  Case: Classroom Management SOS
I am currently interning in a high school ESE room, the students are at levels between 2nd grade and 4th grade. The teacher that I am with has a hard time managing the behaviors of the lower level students. She has left me in the room at one point and one of the students threw his backpack at the fan that is in the room. I told her about the incident when she got back to the room, the student even came up and told her because he was proud of himself. She just told him to take his seat, was there something else to be done?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
In that specific instance, it seems that the student was acting out for attention so that is why she probably chose to ignore the behavior. However, this is a behavior that is dangerous to his other peers in the classroom. I would kindly suggest to your CT that a behavior specialist should be on call if dangerous behaviors persist.
