  Case: Non-Verbal Student in Wheelchair
In my internship classroom, I have a student who is Non-Verbal and in a wheelchair. She is 17 years old and is on the level of about an 8 month old. She is able to get out of her wheelchair and sit in a normal chair for short periods of time and is able to walk with the help of a wall or railing. This is my first experience with a self-contained ESE student. My issue is, that because she is on such a different level then the rest of my students, it is difficult for me to dedicate a lot of attention when it comes to teaching her. She often becomes board in the classes with other students, and will begin to wheel around the room and snatch books and papers from other students and throw them across the room. This is often a huge distraction in the classroom. She does have a paraprofessional that accompanies her throughout the day, but sometimes she has to step out to help other students. How can I keep this student occupied throughout the day, so she does not disrupt the rest of the students? She also often refuses to do other activities that I have prepared for her.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is hard. I would try my best to help her and show her I really do care. This might make her care as well.
