Because the arm that the student has broken is also the hand that he uses to write, it will be impossible for him to write his answers on his test. The grades for the unit test must be submitted that day, so there is no possibility for him to make the test up on another day. Ms. Sally can not use class time to personally administer the test to this student because must monitor the rest of the class while they take their test. What is Ms. Sally to do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Ms. Sally needs to contact an administrator and make them aware of the situation. If they cannot help you administer the exam then maybe a co-teacher or teacher who has planning can assist you. What will you do for a student who is absent from school that day? I would treat the situation the same as an absent student if not other options are available.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: This is a good solution. Having another teacher help is a great solution.
