  Case: Tardy to class
There is an EBD student that comes to class late every morning. Some days he walks in, and everything is just fine. Other days, he is upset and throws his backpack or slams his chair into the table. My cooperating teacher and I do what we can to prevent agitation when he comes in, but some days there's just no preventing an outburst...
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would have a meeting with the student and address the reason why he is coming to class tardy every morning. I feel like his mood when he comes in stems from something that happens in his morning before he even comes to class. Addressing the issue and coming up with a method of possibly avoiding the reason he is angry each morning would be extremely helpful. Also i feel that there could be a way to have him give a signal when he comes in that is non disruptive that allows you to understand his current mood and give him time to properly adjust to the new atmosphere and decompress. I feel that talking to the student and allowing him to explain and help build strategies would help the situation and him to feel like there are people on his side that want to help him be successful!

Comments: This is a great idea. Finding out the reason the student is late and is coming to class agitated will allow you and the student to come up with the best solution. The non disruptive signal is a great way to allow him to communicate.

Comments: I agree with this solution and think it would solve this issue. There may be something going on with the student's personal life thats causing him to be late and talking to him to figure it will help the problem.
