Case: hungry
A boy in my class during my ESOL practicum cries every day around the same time that he is so hungry. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Hi Mynuqy,
I would definitely talk to your supervising teacher to see if he/she is aware of this problem. I would also ask the student why he is hungry, if he ate breakfast or lunch today, if he has money for lunch today, etc. If I were you, I would ask the teacher if he/she knows whether the student is qualified for reduced/free lunch. If he is not getting free lunch, then you may recommend that the CT talk to the social worker or someone at the school that has connections to resources that may help the student. If he does get free lunch, then you and your CT may want to establish a system where he is monitored at lunch to make sure he is eating. Are you only visiting the class once a week and is it possibly on Mondays? Maybe he has food when he is at school but is not able to eat on the weekends when he does not have access to school meals. Again, maybe your teacher could talk to the social workers who may have connections to soup kitchens/non profit organizations that donate food to families. I know of an organization called End 68 Hours of Hunger that does this.

| Comments: Great solution. I like the idea of speaking isn't the CT as they tend to know what is going on with the students in the classroom and can be of assistance an knowledge. Great ideas and detailed of resources and steps to follow. Great solution that can be implemented easily in the classroom in a respectful manner to the student and for the student. |

| Comments: I like this solution because it provides a short and long term solution, getting the teacher involved allows for answers to questions as well as brings attention to the matter. It doesn't put the intern at risk either if they were to just start bringing in snacks or contacting the parents. |

| Comments: You have made very valid points. Some families do no have food at home and cannot afford lunch. I think the child should be monitored by what he is or is not eating by having help from other teachers in the cafeteria to watch over him and give feedback. You could also have him eat in your classroom or in the guidance counselor's office as well to make sure he is eating. |

| Comments: It is important to give student the resources they are entitled to. If a student needs free or reduced lunch, they are entitled to get it. It is hard for a teacher to see this because we want to do everything for our students. Getting high administration involved will benefit the student in the long run. |
