How to Deal with Strong-Willed Children and Behavioral Challenges

Classroom Management for Kids: Behavior Games That Make Sunday School Obedience Fun

As we started to sing, Karl rolled his eyes; slid further down in his chair; and crossed his arms as if to say, “I dare you to try to get me to sing.” It didn’t take long for the other 4th and 5th grade boys to follow his example and refuse to participate during songs.
