 Re: Dealing with a VERY difficult child in class
i had a similar experience with a child like that in class. everyone called him 'the monster' and he was known throughout the school as a menace. now he is tame, and at least respects everyone. he is not fighting as much, and dosen't get in trouble too much.
i took a diffrent approach. i used some modified military discipline routines and strict discipline on the entire class for about the first two to three weeks of class. I don't have any trouble with any of them now. as far as this child is concerned...he didn't like it at first, but after 5 periods of time out and a modified timeout punishment (when he wanted to play games and sing in the corner)...he dosen't give me or anybody else trouble. |
