  Case: Crying in the classroom
In a kindergarten classroom, one boy cries very often. He cries upon arrival and transitioning through the morning. 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 try to motivate the student to participate by providing positive incentives that makes working seem more appealing than crying. I would consult your coteacher, parents, and the student himself to come up with a specific behavior management plan. Create specific goals, daily, weekly, and overall. Use rewards, consequences, and reinforcement to motivate him. Find out what motivates him most and use it as an incentive for participation. You can also use student interest to create engaging lessons that he wants to be a part of.
