  Case: Class Ringleader
Most times you have leaders of groups within a class or perhaps a child who is more talkative than the others and the class clown if you will. In one of my classes, however, I have a boy who seemingly controls the whole class. If he doesn't approve of the assignment then the entire class dismisses it as well. Is there a way to deal with this behavior privately within the classroom or directly with the boy without taking the situation to the administration? What would you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would lean into the student having leaderships skills. I would meet with the student privately and discuss a classroom role he can have involved in rewarding positive behavior. Like coming to the teacher if he notices someone puts in exceptional behavior. there would have to be ground rules to avoid him having favoritism. It really depends on the individual student, so it is hard to make conclusions based solely on this information.
