To all thank you. He today ended up in the principals office. He was bored in music and they also use the clip chart. With each clip down he continued to willfully disobey. He spent recess with the principal.
He has lost privileges and I make him write apologizes. I understand he has the right to chose his behavior - however he needs to know its rude. We are being very firm but very calm. Getting angry leads to anger issues on his part and more defiance.
Yet I know he has the clip chart figured out and what punishment is eminent. What consequence will he hate enough to comply? He knows the punishment and looks right at it and keeps going with a vengeance.
I was more compliment in school. However when we moved to a small rural community in HS I started to goof off and conjure mischevious pranks. That's what happens when school is unchallenging and you have too much time - you can think of more interesting things to do! Which gives me an idea that might help him comply....
I agree, removal from Art will not help. Keeping posting ideas!
