  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!)
I love the idea of having this student write down her thoughts instead talking about them. I think this is the best way to express her thoughts and feelings and it lets the student still have a voice. You will be able to read her thoughts later and acknowledge them.

Comments: This is a good idea, but I think it needs to be executed sparingly because she could also get lost or behind in the lesson if she's always writing her thoughts and feelings down.
