  Case: Withdrawn
In Mrs. Gregory's class there is a little girl who cries about everything. She cries about getting on the computer, fire drills, going to the bus after school, going to specials, everything. In addition to this, she talks to no one, and at recess she does not even go out to the playground. She just sits on the pavement. Mrs. Gregory has asked her about this and she says she is scared. She withdraws herself from the class. What are some ways that the teacher can help this student with improving social skills and maybe getting more comfortable around her peers and in certain situations?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Document everything, and refer her for emotional help. Get your team together to address the child's needs. It seems to me that she is too emotional and needs some professional help. Get the parents involved and let them know what is going on. It is not normal for a child to be so sad. She might need to be staffed for specific services.

The suggested solution is original No
Comments: I do not think that this should be the immediate solution. I think other resolutions could be attempted before referring the child for emotional help. Getting them a buddy that they can spend time with and make them feel better would be the first step. See if she gets more comfortable and spend one on one time with her as well. Do not single her out in front of the class either.
