Discipline woes

bee_yorkI know between (much welcomed) lurkers and people on my f-list, there's at least a few teachers who read my journal. So I'm going to ask for some advice.
Does anyone have any tips/advice for handling discipline with grade 1 kids? More specifically, those anti-social kids who refuse to participate in group activities, sing-a-longs, games, and choose to wander around the room instead.
I can't leave them to do break the rules and wander, of course, but at the same time I can't keep stopping the activities that 99% of the rest of the class is currently enjoying just to get that one troublemaker (or 2) back on task.
If anyone reading this--anyone at all--has any suggestions or has been in this situation before, please please let me know!
I know you all have great senses of humour and lots of wit, but still: serious answers only, please. :)
