He will answer a few questions on the classwork or assessment and then turn it in. He doesn't care what grades he makes or any punishment he may receive. I have contacted his mom, administrators and behavior specialist. The only way he completes any assignment is with an adult literally next to him telling him to go on to the next question. When I am able to do this, things are fine; however, I have 27 students in my class and cannot afford to spend that much individual time on a student. He is smart and I believe that this is all choice, not ability. What do I do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Definitely meet with the student! You might also want to implement a rewards system of sorts. Group work can push some students to participate if they have peer involvement. I really like assigning students individual roles; it might make him feel important and likely to participate. Overall, keep parents involved and ask them to monitor him during assignments. Also, open yourself up to strategies they use if they are helpful.
