  Case: Belonging
I have a new student who has just transferred to self-contained from general ed. He is unhappy and feels this work is for babies, even though he is not do well with it. How do I involve him when he is upset to be working beside a student with visible disabilities?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This student needs motivation. He's upset that he was moved from the mainstream classroom. Providing this student with a sense of purpose will motivate him to do his work. Pairing him up with the visually impaired student is a great start to establishing this motivation. Convince the student that he is here for a reason and that is to help the other students and once he has accomplished this mission, he can go back to the mainstream classroom.

Comments: I think this is an ineffective solution because you should not lie to the student about why he is there. It is important to level with him because he obviously knows he is there because he needs to be and is just frustrated.
