  Case: Acting Out
In one of my co-taught classes we have a student that is served under an IEP and acts out constantly. While currently his alignment report has him in the co-taught setting it has become evident that he will be more successful in the resource setting. He lacks many pre-requisite skills that he needs to be successful in this course but his IEP review isn't for another few weeks, so he will be in our class for the remainder of the semester. Because the work can seem very intimidating to him at times, rather than working, he acts out and is a constant disruption to himself and others. What are some strategies I can utilize to keep this student engaged and focused so that he is not a disruption to the rest of the class?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Maybe accommodating the student with similar problems that are easier. Changing the content is not allowed unless the student is in a modified curriculum class. I would start with the pre-requistie skills he lacks along with integrating current work. This will allow him to feel as if he is being successful with the hopes of less acting out.

Comments: I agree with having similar material to his fellow students but at his level will most likely keep the student on task and will decrease the amount of times the student acts up.

Comments: I definitely agree with you. You don't want to loosen up the teaching strategies on what he is picking up, just try a different method when it comes to the pre-reqs he is slacking in.
