  Case: Student scared to engage
I have a student in my internship who has Cerebral Palsy. I recently found out he was very atheltic before his numerous surgeries kept him wheelchair bound. Now, he just responds "That sucks" to everything. Every book, every assignment, and every opportunity results in "That sucks." How can I get him to be more engaged and enthusiatic?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Try talking to the students parents, administrator, guidance counselor and psychologist if available at your school. This is an issue that needs to be addressed immediately. At the same time try introducing the Paralympics to the entire class, their are various videos showcasing how amazing people who have disabilities are, with various videos stating that paralympians are superhumans. Showcase sports and other activities your student may be able to do, even implementing modified games where he can participate and shine in.
