  Case: Student needs additional help
One day during my internship I was asked to assist a student with an independent math assignment. This student is not on an IEP or a 504 but I think he really needs one. As he completed his work he needed subtle reminders to show his work, write a little neater, and to label. I would look at his answers and they were correct, they were just a little messy. I could see his wheels turning and I knew he knew what to do and how to do it, he just had a hard time putting it on paper. I would ask him to tell me how he got the answer, it was usually a great strategy and showed me he knew what he was doing so I would tell him to write that down to make it evident for grading. My CT said his score on this assignment was pretty high and did not match what he usually accomplishes. I think he needs additional help and guidance and should be on an IEP or 504 but I don't think any action is being taken to do this. This boy is smart but he is often thrown to the wayside because he is a small behavior problem. I hate witnessing this and I wish he was given a fair chance.

Comments: While this is a positive comment it is not the best solution for the issue. Encouragement and praise do go a long way for some students but often the IEP or 504 does need to be implemented.

Comments: This doesn't really say what the plan of action is. We need to know how to make this student succeed. They need to be evaluated to perform at the best level they can be at.
