  Case: Incomplete Work
I have a student who never turns in a completed assignment. He will answer a few questions on the classwork or assessment and then turn it in. He doesn't care what grades he makes or any punishment he may receive. I have contacted his mom, administrators and behavior specialist. The only way he completes any assignment is with an adult literally next to him telling him to go on to the next question. When I am able to do this, things are fine; however, I have 27 students in my class and cannot afford to spend that much individual time on a student. He is smart and I believe that this is all choice, not ability.

What do I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Maybe there is something else going on. He might not be understanding something and is embarrassed to say something or he is having a problem somewhere in his life and wants someone to talk to. Have you thought about any ESE type issues? He may need to be observed or tested.
