He does not cry during centers, but when it is time to do CVC words at the carpet or table work he cries. I feel it is a means of escape or attention but the co-teacher will baby him into compliance. What could be done? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would have a conference with the parents to understand if the root of his behavior is due to the parents. Sometimes if the parents give in to the bad behavior, he will think the same will happen at school. I would try to ignore it or scold him for it. Maybe remove him from the group or make him do his own assignment.
