The youngster was seen handing rocks to yobs outside a hotel housing asylum seekers and hurling stones at cops.
He also stood in front of a bus to get it to stop and attacked it as it drove past.
Three days later he was seen wearing a balaclava while throwing more objects at officers and joining looters.
District Judge Joanne Hirst told him he would face "consequences".
And she told his mum: "He's more involved in the violence and disorder than any other defendant I've seen coming through these courts, adult or child."
Speaking to the boy at Manchester magistrates' court, she said: "You have gone out not once but twice.
"You are the first person I have dealt with to have been involved in two.
"It's time to stop letting your mum down now. You are to do one thing — do as you're told."
