  Case: Behavior Student
Ms. Robins have a male student in the 2nd grade class that can not function on his own while learning in the classroom. If he sits at his own table he does not complete his work and draws on the table, constantly moving around the room, playing, talking, and destroying pencils, crayons, etc. When she sits him at her table he consistently completes his assignments. She has spoken to the parents several times. She has put him on a daily hourly behavior plan with incentives. She has expressed her concerns to administration. He thinks it is funny and continues to be a class clown. He is already on RTI and has been held back in the third grade.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that the daily hourly behavior plan with incentives is a great idea. I believe that he should also have consequences for bad behavior. I would suggest taking away 10 minutes of recess time where he watches everyone else play. I would reward the other students with candy because of their good behavior in class and not give him a reward if his behavior continues to be bad.

Comments: I do not think rewarding others for expected behavior is the answer. also, I do not think taking away recess is the answer for the child. That is this time he needs to release his energy. This is not a good solution in my opinion.

Comments: Sounds like a very difficult student that the parents are having trouble guiding as well. This solution would work.
