This document discusses problem behaviors that can occur in the classroom and strategies for addressing them. It first explores why problems may arise, such as family issues, boredom, or a student's self-esteem. It then recommends preventing problems by creating a code of conduct with student input and building positive teacher-student relationships. When problems do occur, the document advises teachers to address issues immediately while focusing on the behavior, not the student, and taking appropriate next steps privately. It also suggests using colleagues and school administrators for support when needed.
