Case: How do I control a smart kid who bothers others without de-motivating him?
One of my students is quite intelligent. He will answer whatever question I ask without considering other kids who may have the answer, is hyperactive and won't listen. The other children are disturbed by him. But in exams he does well.How do I take control of him and at the same time not impact his motivation level?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would start to call on the students by name before asking a question, this way he can not blurt out the answers. Since he is hyperactive and very smart, I would make sure to always have some sort activity that he can do if he finishes before the rest of the class. I have seen this scenario before and the teacher would have different academic centers that the students could participate in after they finished their assignments. The students enjoyed this because they were not stuck at their desks waiting for others to finish,and the teacher didn't have to worry whether or not a certain student was going to be distracting to others. |

| Comments: I like the idea of centers. I remeber when my teachers gave us a coloring assignment after we finished our work and it was effective. |

| Comments: I agree, saying the students name who is expected to answer first is a good solution otherwise the student may think it's a free for all. Also, I agree having activities/ centers would benefit not only him but the rest of the class. |
