I am a PreK teacher. In my class I have one child that absolutely drives me insane!!! He REFUSES to listen to me. He bites and spits on the other children. When I put him in time out he throws himself on the floor and kicks and screams. I have tried everything. I have tried rewards through out the day, positive feedback, reinforcement. It is wearing me out. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Talk to the parent(s) there could be serious problems at home, when he kicks and screams just be patient, try talking in a whispering voice,ask him what do he want he probably need a little extra attention.Also he may not be ready for school just yet, you dont want to embarrass him , but the next time he acts up offer him a bottle let him know that he's acting like a baby, and you only have big girls and boys in your class.

Well depending on District policies you can file a complaint with the school and have the kid removed from the school until he is old enough to enter Kindergarten, preK is not guaranteed by any educational system, and some parents just use it as a cheep form of daycare.

Uuuuummm, be a child for moment and think...You know that thing we do with our mind, YEAH that. Anyway, like I said
be a child for right now and think, why would a child act this way in the first place? I believe by knowing what the exact problem that cause's the child (rebel) to act this way can, WILL or help you find a way to first connect a friendship with the child before you try demand any changes...I mean think he obviously is having trouble at home in which his actions (by emotion) are not being expressed correctly, either because he was taught to rebel by vision (example) and or is always the blame of everything that goes wrong in the house (lack of attention)...Do you know the parents? have you reached out and tried bringing this situation to there brain? if so, How did they respond? Angry, threatened to punish the kid, careless, "acted" liked they cared? Are they always busy? Is this kid involved in ANY sports or activities after school?Who watch's the kid when out of school? Do they offer any mentoring or counseling at your school? If not, WHY?
You need to know all and alot more if you want to HELP this kid...As far as him obeying anyone he needs a friend he can express comfortably with so he can LISTEN and agree to the friend that will guide and direct him to a better way thru expression THEN he sha'll obey <---------WITH NO YELLING OR ANY TYPE OF ABUSE..it's alot easier then it sounds...
But who am I..? eh, some loser!

I worked in a business enterprise as quickly as wherein little ones have been given right here in below the impact of alcohol after lunch consistently. (This was returned mutually as the eating age was 18 for awhile, and a few seniors have been of approved age.) although, because I hadn't considered the newborn take the drink i could no longer accuse him of being below the impact of alcohol. i necessary to get on the telephone and get in touch with the workplace and tell them that the newborn appeared "ill". Then he'd get sent to the nurse. hopefully faculties have wised up slightly by potential of way of now. although, if a pupil is ill for any reason he must be sent out of the class and the mothers and fathers must be observed as. some reading disabled scholars are entitled to an aide or functional source coach interior the learn room, that's helping slightly. in any different case, the instructor can terrific isolate the disruptive pupil. each from time to time having them artwork independently on a job helps.

talk to the kid's parents about how they make him behave. And if they say "he's always like that" he might not be ready for school..perhaps another year?

He may not be ready for school. Call his parents and ask them what they do when he behaves that way.
