One of my teachers last year was fairly insistent that the best thing to do with a trouble maker is to give him or her a special job to show that you trust him or her.
The other day in an English class there was a technology malfunction and we, as students offered our suggestions. This is when it occurred to me that maybe the best kind of task to give your trouble makers could be to help with the technology; most kids are good at technology and with some extra time, presentations can look extra nice. Also, students love to use technology.
The only danger, of course, is giving a trouble maker too much free reign.
