I am a first year teacher. I teach learning support and am currently teaching a social skills/study skills class. All of the students in my class have behavior problems and/or emotional disturbances, so keeping their attention for very long is near impossible. They are between the ages of 15 and 18. Does anyone have any ideas of some hands on projects that I could do with them that might be enjoyable for them. Thank you for any ideas.

Give this question to them (behavior problems in the classroom) as a written exercise. Then you can read their views, This will be of benefit to you as well as your students. At that age, (most) do not understand the importance of learning. That may be another related topic for discussion!
If this doesn`t work, you simply announce that anyone not wishing to participate in the class may wait in the 'Deans' office until the remainder.
