  Case: Crying Teenager
Mr. Askew has a new student who was degraded to his class because her performance wasn't good in the class she was taking. Her mom has been very sick, which causes her to cry in the middle of the class or loose focus. Mr. Askew has talked to the school counselor and the department has talked to her, but the behavior seems to persist. He tries to be supportive but his options are running low.
What should Mr. Askew do in this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would offer the student another way to express herself during the school day. Maybe get her one of those adult coloring books for her to work on when she needs a moment. Or offer her to when she does get lost in her thought to write it down in a journal and then get back on task with the lesson.

Comments: The adult coloring book is a good idea. However, so the others don't think it's unfair I would let her do it in the back of the classroom or in the office.
