  Case: Low literacy
Student is not doing her work. She is keeps interrupting class and being extremely disruptive. She argues with other students. She is aggressive verbally and physically. She talks back and mocks the students. The issue I feel is that she is extremely low reader. She is a level g reader in the fourth grade. She is not receiving any services. I am working on gaining data for services but what is a suggestion you have for this student.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would start by having a conversation with the student. Offer one-on-one time or additional support for the student during reading and reading assignments. Also let the student know the consequences of being verbally and physically harmful to other students. I would also suggest having a meeting with the student and the parents to talk about her behavior. Talk with administrators and see if there is a way to speed up the process so the student can begin receiving services as soon as possible.
