The teacher sends the work to ISS for the student to complete; however, the student is still falling behind because he has missed so much instructional time. What are some solutions that will help prevent this child from falling behind even more?                 Submit a Possible Solution Please read response(s) below (if any) before posting your solution.                 Solution 1 Posted October 18, 2014 9:27 pm ZugySe Reps: 104 Many times I pull the students out of ISS just long enough to hear the lesson and then I send them back with work to complete. When I pull them; however, I let them know that I am doing them a favor and if they misbehave for any reason during the lesson, they are going right back to ISS. I isolate them in the back of the room and I teach the lesson. As soon as the lesson is complete, I send them right back. So far, after 4 years of teaching, I have NEVER had to send a student back to ISS during the lesson.

If the student is noticeably falling behind, I think it's fair to allow them in the class room, especially if they understand it is a privilege and not a right.   Posted on: October 19, 2014 4:07 pm raWubu Reps: 97 I like this solution, but I also feel like the teacher should try to get to the root of the behavioral problem.   Posted on: October 20, 2014 2:09 am Add a Comment                 Solution 2 Posted October 18, 2014 8:35 pm Leslie Studdard Reps: 101 Not knowing what types of technology is available, I am assuming that you have access to a camera. If this is the case, record your instruction and then have the student review the recording while in ISS or at home. If you have ViewPath in your classroom, you can also record as you are teaching and the students can watch while you are teaching in the classroom. If you do not have access to these types of technology, then have them view youtube videos or other videos using a computer or Ipad while at home or in ISS.

In addition, depending on the behavioral issues, ISS might not be the first answer for every behavior problem had with this student, especially since they are falling behind with school work. Finding an alternate, but equally undesirable, punishment might benefit this student in the long run.

I think videotaping lessons is a creative idea, however; if the student had a lack of drive to learn, I don't know what I would do to get them to watch and comprehend the video.   Posted on: October 19, 2014 4:08 pm Add a Comment                 Solution 4 Posted October 18, 2014 11:33 pm eduhaz Reps: 98 If it was a critical lesson, like writing for example, I would absolutely pull the student out. You could also visit the student during your planning to go over the content as well. I would suggest using a tutoring or academic enrichment time as well. You could also pull the student from p.e. as an option.

I post my notes, short videos, and additional resources in folders on Edmodo for students who are absent and/or in ISS so they can still access instructional materials.

Technology is a great tool for teachers, but what about finding out why the student is misbehaving?   Posted on: October 20, 2014 2:10 am Add a Comment                 Solution 6 Posted October 19, 2014 9:03 pm geQyVe Reps: 94 Solution one- Stay out of trouble. Solution two- Come to school. Solution three- Do not put the blame on the teacher. I agree that trying to help the child is a great idea. I had a similar situation with a student who missed half the year for skipping, ISS, or OSS. My administration understood I cannot help the student if they are never at school. Helping a student during your planning is a good idea. I will not spend all my planning helping one when there are 89 others I have to prepare for. You are still responsible for this students state test, so help the student but do not lose focus of the 89 doing the right thing.
