At the beginning of the school year Harvey was not keeping up. The teacher thought it was because Harvey was just getting used to being in a new environment but now weeks later Harvey grades are falling. How does the teacher get Harvey to get accustomed to his new environment? And if these problems persist how can he change it? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Sitting down with Harvey and talking with him about the move and how he's feeling can help him become more comfortable in his environment. Showing that you care is important because Harvey may feel like he's alone and doesn't have anyone to talk to. Ask him how you can help him succeed and then implement those solutions. If there is a language barrier, try using translator technology as well as short, simple phrases when speaking with him.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I think this is probably the best course of action.
