Case: Shuts Down
I have a student who begins to cry and shuts whenever she does not understand how to do something. She is a sweet child, loves school, and does her homework. She is on an RTI for reading and math fluency. When we met with her parents we discussed how this reaction is detrimental to her learning. They have the same problem at home and we all think it is a lack of self-confidence. She is struggling but every time she puts her head down and cries I feel like she is getting further behind. I work with her in small groups in reading and math every day and tutor her during bus duty plus an hour after school once a week. I have tried encouragement, conferences, and tough love. Nothing is working. What else can I do?

Maybe you should try to create an incentive plan that is unique to her. Let her choose what her reward will be if she starts showing progress both behaviorally/emotionally as well as academically. You could work together to set certain goals for her to achieve. If it is something she is involved in planning she may be more likely to make it a priority and stick to it than if it was something she has no interest in. |

| Comments: I agree that an incentive plan is a great suggestion. It does sound like she lacks confidence and needs a way to feel special and encouraged. Kids love to have reward systems and she sounds like she needs small steps to reach success. |

| Comments: Agreed. With child with lack of self-confident, an incentive plan that is unique for her is a good choice. She'll work hard for what she likes and then will gain confidence through that. |

| Comments: I think this plan would be very productive for the teacher and create confidence in the student. If she is able to choose the reward she receives if she does well, she will have more incentive to complete her work and behave. If she gets confused she will hopefully have more incentive to ask for help then get emotional and give up because she wants the prize. |
