Case: Ants in Pants
In my internship there is a student that can not sit still, and is often a distraction for the other students. The teacher often allows him to stand next to his desk while he is working. This seemed to work for a short while, but now his constant fidgeting has become even more of a distraction. Has anyone found any helpful tactics that could help?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The best way to deal with students who fidget would be to give them a task that when they can complete when they have finished their work and not while you are instructing. For example, letting the student clean the white board, running some papers down to the front office, or helping you some assignments. If it really is becoming an issue you should talk to the student's parents to see if it happens at home, if it does, then recommend the child for ADD/HD testing. |

Comments: I would also give students tasks for if they are done with their work. This is a great idea and I would also use it as a solution. |

Comments: I think this is a good solution that still doesn't cause much distraction. This is also a great way to observe how distracted a child is so that you have good information to explain to the parents what is going on. |

Comments: I do not think this is a good solution to implement. If you feel that one of your students may have ADD/ADHD, before talking to the parents about it personally, you should get a second opinion from a guidance counselor or a therapist. This would allow you to have other adults who have seen and worked with the student to back you up on your case when speaking to the parents. |
