I call the office when I see the antecedent behaviors taking place but he almost walked off campus the other day before someone was able to find him. How can I prevent him from partaking in this behavior? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Always actively monitor the student. Analyze or ask him if there is something that triggers him enough to feel the need to leave. Maybe you can try to place a stop sign on the door so there is one more image for him to see before he takes off that remind hi that this behavior is incorrect. Verbally intervene and say something to distract his mindset of leaving. Try to shift his focus on to something whether it be a game or a "brain break" for the entire class. If he manages to leave the room, contact administration right away so they can meet him before he exits the building altogether and puts himself in a even. more dangerous position.                 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: If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this. The stop sign is a great idea and a good reminder for the student. Rated On: October 13, 2019 8:27 pm Rated By: aLynaX
