  Case: EBD Behavior Issue
A male student in the 2nd grade is in a full inclusion classroom with a general and special education teacher. This student is very disruptive and has already been labeled EBD. He continue to disrupt the classroom by flipping over desk, chairs, throwing things, and being so disruptive the entire class has to stop. The teachers have had administration come into the classroom over ten times. Their response is always to try to calm the student down and provide positive discipline. His behavior may change for the moment but is never consistent. He should be placed in the EBD classroom but they do not want to move him in the middle of the school year.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have experienced a similar situation. With this type of problems, your options are limited. First of all, I suggest trying to find triggers that cause the behaviors and work from there. I also strongly recommend documenting everything. This will help you support your claims when considering the possibility of moving him or other accommodations.

Comments: The best thing we can do is try to prevent the behavior and keep track of all outbursts. Moving the child to and EBD classroom may be best for their learning and for the rest of the class.

Comments: Documenting whenever a student acts out is always important when making decisions about the student. I agree with you when it comes to finding a trigger, if you find the trigger you maybe able to calm him down quicker or figure a way to prevent the trigger from happening.

Comments: I agree with this solution, documenting incidents is very important when trying to provide your case to others. Also, keeping note of the student's triggers and trying to avoid these situations if at all possible is a great idea.
