  Case: Doesn't Listen
I have a student who consistently calls out in class. Even when I give explicit instructions and directions, the student still will call out. This student does so to be funny and to get attention. How can I handle it in a way that doesn't draw attention to the bad behavior? I've tried positive reinforcement but it doesn't seem to work that well.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
in order to not be disruptive yourself, I would wait until a break in class to confront him about his behavior and remind him that everyone is here to learn and needs the opportunity to show what they know not just him. I would also seat him closer to the teacher and if he is craving attention maybe give him a classroom job to do to give him purpose.

Comments: I love the idea of giving him a job! This allows him to receive both student and peer attention at suitable times (ex, having him hand out snack)while also encouraging him to be respectful during the rest of the day.
