  Case: Mocking teacher
There is a student that mocks her teacher when she tells her directions. She has never been caught but her classmates have brought this to the teachers attention. How should the teacher go about this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would absolutely send an email or note home to the student's parents, but offer solutions and positive reinforcement to the student when they do what they want. Otherwise, giving them negative attention is still attention and could be what the student wants.

Comments: I agree with this solution, especially with the positive reinforcements. Also the best outcome would be to ignore the behavior if it is not disruptive to the students at hand.

Comments: I like your advice to focus on positive behaviors and give praise. So often, it is easy to notice undesirable behaviors. This is why it is important to be intentional with noticing appropriate classroom behaviors that students display and give praise to reinforce those behaviors.
