Case: Inclusion: Burnout
Ms. Heart is a Special Education Teacher in an upper elementary setting. She has a student that has an IEP; is off task over 90% of the time, antagonizes other students so that the teacher cannot hear, is capable but displays very little care or concern for work or completion, and tries to just put her head down and sleep daily during math.
Several different strategies and interventions have been attempted to no avail. Ms. Heart is extremely frustrated knowing that her student is capable under the appropriate conditions but is faced with making it work in the general education classroom. How can she serve this very demanding student along with the other 5 students with IEP's that are on extremely different levels both socially and academically?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It sounds like a lot of this negative behavior could be coming from boredom, or a lack of challenge. Ms. Heart needs to find what motivates this student and use it accordingly to help this student achieve more appropriate classroom behaviors. Also, Ms. Heart mentioned that this student is very capable under the appropriate conditions. She needs to explain to this student that in the real world, conditions will not always be favorable. This student needs to learn some coping skills so she can be most successful in life. Another suggestion is to try implementing "Whole Brain Teaching." Many teachers have had success with this teaching system. |

| Comments: I definitely would do this so,union in my classroom. Identifying what motivates the students and then playing off of that will likely solve the problem. |
