Teachers deal with distracted students all the time. There’s the student who wants to be on the computer instead of reading his assignment or the one who’s waiting for lunch instead of working on her math problems. I get asked questions all the time about these kinds of behavioral support issues. So in this episode, I talk about some of the strategies you can use to deal with students who want to do one thing when it’s time to do something else.
1:58 - The 1st step to addressing this unwanted behavior
3:55 - What to do if the student’s behavior escalates to the point of being potentially harmful
5:42 - A couple of examples using specific students with potential solutions
11:56 - If the student just doesn’t want to wait to do the desired activity
17:24 - How you can implement the behavioral support strategies talked about in this episode
