Emotional Intelligence
For younger children try:
'... you are so angry that teacher told you to do that work again; come and we will do it together...'
instead of shouting at the child or hitting him or her as many teachers would be tempted to do!
For the older ones in high school, something like:
'... you seem to have had a bad day so far today but storming out of the class and banging the door has not shown maturity on your part or made it better. Why don't you sit down and tell me all about it and let's see what we can do ' - will work much better.

Tantrums by the children shouldn't be countered by tantrums from the teacher!
