Case: Help during test Mrs. Chin is a fourth grade teacher who is struggling to help a low performing student with assessments. He always wants to sit right beside her to take a test. She usually reads him the material because she wants to test math skills, not reading. However, he has gotten used to this and refuses to test without her right there beside him. She must continue to monitor the other students, and help him too. What should she do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would develop a system of checking in with the student for during tests. The student would be given a few sticky notes to write questions for the teacher for times in between check-ins. I would start off with a higher number of check-ins and then decrease them over time. For example, at the beginning of the test I would go over and explain the directions for the first few and remind the student to write down questions on the sticky notes. Encourage them to do their best and that you will be back soon to see how they are doing. Then, during the test stop by to answer any questions and provide praise for when they are working independently. At the end of the test, conference with the student and see how they feel they did. Answer any last questions and provide praise for how well they worked independently or review how to use the sticky notes and your testing expectations. |
