Case: ADHD
A student approaches you and tells you that he has ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder). He can't take the test within the time allotted, can't turn in assignments on time, or can't take notes, etc. He is requesting special consideration. Other students in the class overhear your conversation and start to whisper among themselves. What do you do as a teacher?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Children with ADHD can also suffer from anxiety so I would be calm and reassuring. I would confer with office staff to see if anything was on file regarding a diagnosis. Depending on the outcome, I would reach out to the parents in an effort to get the appropriate information to meet the needs of the student.
As far as the whispering students, I would take the opportunity to speak with them about respect and understanding. |
