  Case: Student who avoids subjects
I know a teacher that has a student who constantly goes into the restroom when a subject they do not like it being taught. The student gets up without permission and will lock themself in the restroom for 30 minutes (about the length of the lesson). When the teacher has talked to him about this the student will say that he has to go and that it is an emergency. But this emergency will happen everyday during social studies, so it usually occurs around the same time. How would you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would ask the student right out what is wrong? What is the problem when it comes to social studies? I would ask the student if they can think of ways that I can better teach lesson to get across to him better. Most kids will say social studies is boring, maybe I would do something to liven up the lesson. Like a play or a game using history that we are learning about. If the student tried to leave again, I would follow him out and say "just give it a try see how it goes."
