  Case: Misbehaves for Attention
There is a student in ab ESE class I volunteer in. The student will tell the teacher she is defiantly not doing what the teacher asked of her. Then when the teacher ignores her bad behavior, she shouts and yells, making it difficult to teach. She also will try to tell the teacher what to do, and prompts the teacher to tell her she's doing a good job. When she does finally receive the one on one attention, the student is an angel. Any recommendations how it could be handled for her to stop from interrupting class, especially when she knows she is?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that positive reinforcement would go a long way with the student. It is clear that they are looking for some kind of attention even if it's bad. I think the answers on here are great
