Thank you all for your insights and thoughts on this, all very good.
When I sat down to talk with him, I made sure to not be to snappy, but firm with my voice. I also made it a focus to see if he could let me know if something was bothering him. He actually admitted that he was very hurt by other (mainly older) kids calling him dumb and saying they hate him and don't want to play with him. His teacher mentioned this might be a possiblity of his behaviour- that he is looking for approval from other kids and the teacher. He is a lot like me, I'm afraid, I am not very social, but I am strong-willed. That is not necessarily a bad trait or quality by any means, it's just that at his age he is trying to find the balance of his personality.
More on what has come of it and what I told him to come......
