The teacher often allows him to stand next to his desk while he is working. This seemed to work for a short while, but now his constant fidgeting has become even more of a distraction. Has anyone found any helpful tactics that could help? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Fidget toys are a known way to help students stay on track. If possible, getting a medicine ball or squishy seats can also keep students less distracted.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I agree with this solution. I have seen the medicine ball used in previous classes and it seems to really work. I would only add, that if possible, position the students desk or seating to where it is not blocking the view for other students or is off to the side where the student could be less of a distraction.
