  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!)
Maybe have someone available he can talk to. I have seen this in a class I volunteered for and if the student was having a hard time he could request to talk to the counselor and she would come and take him aside so he could express his thoughts. Some of these outburst will not be preventable, but reducing the number would be a goal to set.
