  Case: Nervous student
What do I do with a 4th grade student who has a habit of chewing on erasers, crayons and pencils?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A student doing these things is most likely suffering from anxiety. It is best to use strategies that make him/her feel less stressed in the classroom. Giving him/her classroom jobs that they can easily accomplish will give him confidence. Make them line leaders, and class helpers to make him feel special and comfortable an successful. Ask him questions that have been thoroughly discussed and give that child extra time to answer.
