  Case: High School CT
My CT teaches two high school social/personal classes and the rest of the day she is in gen. ed. classes helping her ESE students. She rarely gives her students assignments in these classes, so when I have to teach they get annoyed because they know I am going to ask them to complete some work. What do I do to change their attitudes towards me?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Make the activities engaging. It's tough, but I did a lesson on grocery shopping, so I set up a mock grocery store in the classroom. Students enjoyed it a lot, because it didn't feel like the typical worksheet slog they were used to. You have to be creative and think to yourself: "Would I want to do this if I were them?"
