I am new to this student, and I am trying out some new techniques with him. One of his teachers has told me that he is doing these behaviors for attention. I would like to pursue some other avenues in order to explore his intentions. Do I listen to the veteran teacher, or do I follow my instincts? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would do a little of both just to be on the safe side. Talk to him and get him help. There is always reason as to why students act a certain way and I feel you should get to the bottom of it.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case No The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: The solution does not supply many details or ways to prevent the behavior.
