Case: Recommending student for evaluation
I interned in a 2nd grade classroom at a charter school. One student was still having substantial difficulty in learning his letter sounds and had not begun to read like his peers. It was getting to the point that he avoided doing his work, due to his struggles and feeling different than his friends. The teacher and I noticed that he also begun rocking back and forth a bit in his chair in addition to some other behaviors. The teacher had a conference with the mother and recommended that the student undergo an evaluation for a possible disability. The mother refused. And she continues to refuse each time an issue is raised. The teacher now keeps detailed notes of the areas and concepts that are difficult for him, his grades and behavior issues. What else can she do to help get this student the care/support he may need if the mother refuses to have him evaluated?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Documentation is key in this scenario because it will allow the teacher to keep detailed notes of student behavior/academics, but also keep documentation of parent/teacher communication (especially parent declining evaluation). I think working one-on-one with the student or working in small group is going to allow the teacher to establish a plan for this student’s specific needs. Scaffolding learning in whole and small group can provide the student with the extra support he/she needs. Additionally, as the teacher I would observe which learning styles work best for the student and use those in scaffolding and differentiated instruction. |

| Comments: Documentation is the best idea in this situation so the teacher can see how and if the child is growing and possibly can set up a conference with the parent to go over the notes and observations. |

| Comments: One on one time with this student is really great idea beyond just the documentation. This will also help the student feel supported and seen especially if they are struggling in class. |
