Case: Sleeping in Class
Mrs. Will has noticed that some of her students are falling asleep in class which leads them to not grasping the content of the lesson and scoring lower on tests. What can Mrs. Will do to keep these students awake and ensure that they've learned the lessons?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Depending on the time of day this student is falling asleep there are different things you could do. If it's at the start of the day, I would suggest a parent conference or phone call to discuss what is the student's nightly routine to ensure they're getting enough sleep. If it's in the middle or end of the day maybe their brain is tired and they need a brain brake. To help with this have the student do a physical activity at the beginning of each class. For example you can have them pass out paper, take attendance, check to make sure everyone wrote down the homework, run an errand, or just walk to get water and back. By giving them that little "brain break" maybe it will help him stay awake and engaged in the class. |

Comments: I believe having a student take attendance or pass out papers will not necessarily resolve the issue of falling asleep. Since it appears the issue involves several students falling asleep, changing up the teaching method would be the best resolution (i.e. pairing groups with a project or stations). |
