  Case: ESE Student Disrupts the Class
When I was interning in a kindergarten classroom, there was one girl who was diagnosed with autism. She was five years old and non-verbal. When things seemed to upset her it was very clear though loud vocalizations and tantrums. The teacher requested to have 1-to-1 aide work with the student but it took months before receiving the help. During that time, teaching time was wasted due to the teacher having to redirect her attention to deal with that student. What kinds of tools could she have used to prevent these behaviors and not take away from the rest the class?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It would be a good idea to really analyze the situations to see if there are triggers to the breakdowns. Is the student overstimulated, perhaps a sensory processing issue? It can be something as simple as the lighting that becomes too much for a child with ASD to deal with. It could be a change in schedule or procedures too. Once you find the triggers, you can make certain changes in the classroom and lessen the number of breakdowns.

Comments: This is the best response. All the other responses seek to, neutralize the child whereas this one seeks to help the child.
