How many of the following selected teacher behaviors that create management problems—rather than solve them—have you experienced or seen:

- In my experience, it is a need for attention, postive or negative, it doesn't matter. In middle school, it was peer attention, lower grades adult attention. The key was either to withhold negative attention, or make it so unpleasant that it would curb the behavior. However, it must be balanced with positives which can be a challenge as a teacher to find.

There are so many. Poor discipline is just one. Actually one that is being found to be more and more of a pervading variable is poor nutrition. Especially junk food. Who can blame kids who don't have proper nutrients feeding their brains, or who are hyped up on sugary cereals, from acting like crabby morons.Of course there are special ed. kids, but they are by far in the minority, and they, along with the above, are like nuclear bombs. - Comment 2
most children who act out in classrooms do not get enough attention at home. by acting out in class they feel that they get more of the attention that they desire, and if they happen to be funny he or she seeks the drive they need to continue this bad behavior. The thing that influences a behavior, good or bad, the most is reinforcements. A class clown will continue to act poorly if people laugh, and a bully will continue to pick on kids if he sees that it bothers them. once these bad behaviors become dissociated with the reinforcements , it is possible to eliminate them.to get attention, to entertain themselves, disrespect of the teacher and lack of interest in the subject can't find a way to take their energy out in a possitive way !
