  Case: Accommodations
I am in a 2nd grade internship classroom that has two ESOL students. One of the students is speech emergent and the other may be early production or pre-production. The student is quiet and does not like to interact with the other students very much. The student is on track to be evaluated for a learning disability. The issue is that the teacher seems to work more with the girl that is a the higher level rather than the boy that is on the lower level. I would think that they both need some accommodations to in their class. What can I do to get her to see that she is not helping the lower level boy?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would the situation neutrally and approach it in a collaborative matter. I would say something to the effect of "I noticed that student x,y,z was having a difficult time with activity x,y,z. Would you like me to pull the student and work on this with them individually?"
