  Case: Wants to talk to me in the middle of my lesson
In my internship classroom, I have a student that literally has a story for everything that I prepare a lesson on. She always wants to talk to me in the middle of my lessons and it gets the entire classroom off task. I have tried multiple times to dismiss her stories, by saying "Tell me after class", "We need to focus on this right now", and the often harsh "Does this have anything to do with what we are talking about in our lesson". She is on the autism spectrum and gets very upset when you redirect her back to the lesson. What do I do so I do not hurt this students feelings, as well as continue to discipline her so she is not constantly blurting out in the middle of my lessons?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If the student speaks out during class, you could remind her that its your turn and when you are done, it will be her turn. She may have to be reminded regularly. You could also pretend to be so shocked that she interrupted you and tell her how it hurt your feelings and she may understand what you are trying to say better.
