I will give her a lot of time to respond. I will restate the question in a few different ways. I make every attempt to involve her in the lesson, but she only responds once and a while. How do I ease her anxiety? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would try to incoroprate more group or partner activities in my lesson plans. Allowing her to work with other students may ease her nerves and help her come out of her shell.
