  Case: All they need is love
A student who is diagnosed as ADHD continually disrupts class. This student throws things and throws tantrums. After this child makes a scene they run up to the teachers and professes how much they love the teacher. How should the teacher address this problem which happens on a consistent basis?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It seems as though the student is testing their limits in the classroom. If they know that they can throw tantrums and then calmly go to the teacher and profess their love, they are thinking that this type of behavior is normal or acceptable. It's important for the teacher to enforce an effective classroom management plan with rules and procedures, as well as consequences. It might be helpful to have a color chart for behavior, and write the mom and dad a little note with their behavior color at the end of each day. The consequences could begin with taking away privileges and then go into more serious consequences like a phone call home, meeting with parents, etc. Between steady consequences inside of the classroom, and hopefully outside of the classroom with their parents, the behavior should improve.

Comments: I think this is a great solution. Cracking down on the student and showing him that you are serious about the classroom rules and cause him to start acting better.
