  Case: Students in ESE classes with behavioral problems
My student has a learning disability and at times he becomes violent, when I say violent I mean kicking teachers, students, and anything or anyone in his path. My concern are for the other students because not only does he do these things to them but anyone can be a target when he gets upset. He loves to break glass and he throws objects heavy objects his parents doesn't seem to be concerned about the other children they just want to make sure their child isn't in any danger when it comes to redirecting him, how would you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As other people have suggested, removing other students and documenting his behavior is a good start to minimizing damage and getting the parents on board. I personally would also suggest putting this students in a corner or seat away from other students with objects ready for the student to break/beat/manipulate. If the teacher can get the parents on board, they can provide these materials instead of or in conjunction with the teacher.
