Help with discipline in the classroom By DisneyTeacher

I teach K and I am at my wits end. What are some real world ways that you control (out of control behavior) without calling the principal or parents every 5 minutes????

I have three children who tend to feed off

of each other and sometimes take turns acting up. I am exhausted!!! HELP I've been using my co teachers, (sending kids to thier class) Hoping I'm not abusing it The parents seem to be lost on what they need to do (spankings every night don't work) My TA is in the room, tries to help, but sometimes aggervates the problem We do small and large group

activities, with same transitions in between, (this really doesn't seem to trigger it a lot)

One child is diagnosed ADD, one is very immature and probably ADHD and the other may be ADD (I promise I'm not trying to label, just guessing from behavior and some (2 yrs) experience)

I just really don't know what to do, we change lights (red, yellow, green) for behavior, sit by themselves at lunch, lose recess, sent back to seat, use a "cool down" corner, but I really don't know what else to do.
