  Case: The Student Who Shouts Out
I have one student that loves to shout out the answers in class. He gets frustrated when he does not get to answer, so he just shouts out the answer to everything. I constantly remind him to raise his hand and give others a chance, but he is still shouting out. What can I do to help this student learn to not shout out?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This student may be attention seeking and/or looking for your approval. In this situation, you may want to try only acknowledging students when they actually raise their hand. Totally ignore the answer when it is shouted out. When students do raise their hand, especially this particular student, make sure to point out how great it is that he or she raise his/her hand to answer the question and offer a lot of praise.

Comments: This is the method that I would use in this situation. It is better to praise them for doing the right thing and ignoring the uncalled for behavior. It will make the child realize what they were doing is not going to get the teachers attention and to result in raising their hand.

Comments: I think ignoring the student an acknowledging other students will kind of embarrass the child but will teach him not to shout out and do what his classmates are doing.
