Case: Overly Touchy ESOL Student
I have a student in my 1st grade class who is very sweet and willing to learn. He is an ESOL student who has not even been in the United States for a year. The teacher I am working with has had an issue with this student crossing the lines with many rules (getting up out of his seat without asking, running in line, etc.) because every other adult at the school doesn't feel they should correct him because he "won't understand." This is not the case. However, because this little boy has been able to get away with so much, he has now taken to getting a little too friendly with some of the young ladies in the classroom--nothing inappropriate, but we will often find him petting their hair while we are sitting on the carpet, he will hug them, and he gets very close to their face when he says hello to them in the morning. Some of these girls do not welcome this affection. Any suggestions on steps that should be taken?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I'm not sure that his behavior is directly related to the fact that he is ESOL. I would redirect the undesired behavior immediately. |

Comments: Yes I agree. he may just be trying to push the limits and use his ESOL status as a cover. However, I would take time to learn of his culture and help him adjust to US culture first before making this assumption. |

Comments: If I was in this situation, I would not find this solution helpful. I believe this situation could very well be culturally related. |
