Case: On the fence student
I have a student who one day can be a perfect angel and then the next day a teacher's worse dream. This student takes medication for ADHD and without it he is a class disruption and very disrespectful. The days that he takes his medication it is the exact opposite. He does his work and and does not hinder others from doing theirs. I have contacted his mother, but she said she cannot do anything with him. He is a smart student but the days he does not do his assignments is beginning to affect his grades. It is also hard for me because I want to distance myself from the student due to the fact I do not know which personality I will get that day. I have talked to the principals about this student and they continue to tell me to work with the student. We have had numerous talks about his grades and behavior, but it seems as if they are not working. What should I do.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that a meeting needs to be held with parent and teachers. Parent needs to understand that the child must have his medication daily. All of those concerns need to be address in the meeting. In addition, parent may need to have the child evaluated by a doctor. I have worked with a number of students with ADHD and the doctor likes to receive feedback from teachers about behaviors they are seeing. His assignments need to chunk and give him a checklist daily so that he can check off items as they are completed. |
