  Case: Yelling out
If you are in front of the entire class trying to correct a pretest so that everyone knows what to do for the test, what do you do if you have one student who is just yelling out all of the answers, sometimes before you even ask the question and the rest of the class is sitting there bored out of their minds. You don't want to ask the student not to answer because he is the type of student who if you did that he would probably find some other way to be disruptive and then he wouldn't be paying attention at all. Plus, chances are that if he were not yelling out the answers, no one else would have.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would suggest for you to remind the students of the rituals and routines of the class. I would tell them to raise their hand and wait until you are acknowledged to answer. I find it that most times when I have a student that blurts out, before I want them to answer, I would remind them not to blurt out the answer. This is a redirection for that student. If the student continues, the I will follow an assertive discipline plan for that student such as call a parent, or after school detention.

Comments: I have often heard especially for students at a young age reminders and repetition of your expectations and rules is key. Reminding not to blurt out is an easy solution to implement and likely to solve the problem.

Comments: If I were dealing with a student who was yelling out the answers before I wanted them to I would do the same. I would remind them to raise their hand and review the classroom rules. If the behavior continued I would make the next disciplinary step.

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do exactly this. I believe this would be the standard way to try and correct this problem. Simply remind the student of the classroom rituals, such as hand raising. If they still do not listen after a couple reminders, then I would take disciplinary action.
