  Case: Accommodations
I am in a 2nd grade internship classroom that has two ESOL students. One of the students is speech emergent and the other may be early production or pre-production. The student is quiet and does not like to interact with the other students very much. The student is on track to be evaluated for a learning disability. The issue is that the teacher seems to work more with the girl that is a the higher level rather than the boy that is on the lower level. I would think that they both need some accommodations to in their class. What can I do to get her to see that she is not helping the lower level boy?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would talk to your CT about your concern and as what current accommodations are in place for that lower achieving student. I would also ask her if you could work with the student and learn his strengths, weaknesses, and his interest so you could help to pair him with an ideal peer that would benefit him and that would get along with the student. If you're CT doesn't want to cooperate or make efforts to help that student I would inform your supervisor of internship and the administration.
