Two things caught my attention while I was reading this chapter. First was the delayed consequence idea. I found it very interesting that that a teacher said, "It was the only time the student didn't argue with me." I wonder if this would work with the student in my classroom? He is very argumentative with all the teachers.
The second thing that was of interest to me was "one-sentence intervention." I think this is something simple I could try with the student in my class. I tried this already with the student and it seem to have a positive result. I noticed he is a very talented artist so I commented on one of his drawings, and he was very excited to share it with me.

I hope that these interventions will keep working for you. They really helped me in my own school and classrooms. There's a good list of interventions in part four.
