  Case: Pencil Chewer
In one of the classrooms I've observed, there is a student who chews the eraser to his pencil. Not only is this a distraction to the other students, but also poses a small threat to the students overall health. The teacher has told the student several times to refrain from doing this, but he continues to. I'm assuming this is a fidgeting tactic the student possesses. Any suggestions on how to terminate or lessen this behavior?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Since chewing on the eraser can pose a small threat to the students overall health maybe replace the eraser with something edible or give the student some type of fidget object like a squishy ball to replace the eraser chewing.

Comments: Prioritizing the child's health is the first step. After securing their health, try and figure out what the cause is and proceed from there.
