Case: Too Cool for School
I have a student who was in a dual-enrollment college course for Economics. He was not passing the course so he dropped it midterm. He has been placed in my inclusion Economics course to make up for not receiving his Economics credit. The problem is he hates being in the class and feels he is too smart to be in there. His mother even told our school secretary this when signing him out last week. How can I make this student feel that he is not too good for the class without being offensive? I will say he is a very bright student and should be in my honors class, but his schedule had conflicts so he could not be in that class. I do not want this student to feel too good for and/or hate the class.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would definitely pull this student to the side and have a serious talk with him. I would make sure to tell him that you understand why his current attitude to the class is they way it is but that its important for the entire class moral that he tries to make the best of the situation he has put himself in. Remind him of his leadership qualities and how this is a great opportunity to lead by example in the classroom and that you might even need his assistance in helping others in the class when they are struggling. This might help him see the positive impact that maybe a not so ideal situation can produce. |
