  Case: How to keep a student on task if you feel as the teacher they are not paying attention
Would you perhaps move them more to the front of the classroom? Ask them more questions? Perhaps maybe pull them aside and see if they need to be readjusted in a different area so that they can concentrate more?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I feel like these solutions are based on the circumstances. If a student is being disruptive or not paying attention because they are around their friends, then moving them may be the best solution. However, if they are being disruptive because they have ADHD or other impairments, it may be best to consult the parents and or nurse to see if they need any accommodations, such as fidgets or time-out (like if they get overwhelmed).
