When we got our first foster child she tested us for a while, she was probably a classic temper tantrum. She would kick us, throw things, scream for about 20 mins, and try to bite us. We became firm and consistent and she learned our rules, we didn't let her get away with anything she learned that negative attention doesn't work with us. Communicating about her behavior helped too, we talk about positive and negative behavior.

My child use to throw tantrums in front of everyone including his classmates, then we created a consequence. We explained to him that every time he threw a temper tantrum, we would go into the car and give him an opportunity to calm down, that when he did calm down, we would return to his class. In the beginning we did this several times in a day. Eventually his tantrums decreased, he told me sitting in the car with me was boring and decided he would rather be in his classroom.
