Bribery

As a parent or teacher, never discount the effects of bribery on a student's willingness to stay quiet and pay attention.

Despite what you might think, for a short term fix it works better on jr high kids. They are better at controlling themselves for an hour than an elementary school kid who remembers for 10 minutes today... and then forgets again until tomorrow when they ask you for more.
