Case: Anxiety Disorder Bringing Disorder
Jan is a new teacher who has a student with an anxiety disorder. The student will have good days and so-so days, but then will have days that are horrible for teacher and student alike. The student is an A student and understands the concepts delivered. The student will sit quietly during classwork and complete assignments independently and not have one question, but on assessment days, the student constantly wants to ask questions and is upset when Jan cannot answer the question and causes a scene that disrupts the other students. Jan cannot possibly answer the student's questions and not expect other students to want their questions answered. Jan has reviewed the student's IEP, and he does not get small group testing, and she has spoken with his case manager who does not think he needs small group testing. Jan has spoken with the other teachers, and the student is in a collaborative or resource setting in all classes except math. How can Jan best serve this student and the other students during testing?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It is apparent that the student needs a small group environment for testing, but since Jan cannot get this to happen immediately, she needs a short term solution so the student will not continue to interrupt other students. I suggest that she discuss with the student before getting into a testing setting that she cannot answer any questions. I think she--and perhaps the guidance counselor--should discuss with the student some ways to combat anxiety during testing. A possible suggestion may be to write her questions down on a separate piece of paper, and taking deep breaths instead of talking or yelling. |

| Comments: I think this a great solution. The short term solution I think would be helpful towards the student until anything else can happen with group environments. |
