  Case: Tardy to class
There is an EBD student that comes to class late every morning. Some days he walks in, and everything is just fine. Other days, he is upset and throws his backpack or slams his chair into the table. My cooperating teacher and I do what we can to prevent agitation when he comes in, but some days there's just no preventing an outburst...
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Unfortunately as teachers we do not know what takes place before this student enters our classroom. There can be so many different situations that are taking place. Maybe the student is not getting sleep at home or is dealing with abusive or fighting parents. Allowing this student an area where they can relax or vent on those disruptive days so that the student can feel better and more eager to learn can help as well.Let the student know you are there for them to try to help any way you are able but disturbing the class will not be tolerated.
