  Case: I Don't Fit In
I have a Hispanic student in my class who struggles to get along with other students. He is constantly getting into arguments with other students and always thinks that everyone is against him. I have spoken to him about this, but the problems still continue. I'm not sure if his difficulties come from cultural differences or if he really does not get along with others. At times I think he gets defensive because he doesn't understand what is going on. How do I handle this problem?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
By creating a environment the student feels comfortable and successful in will help facilitate his behavioral problems. It is essential to provide the student with numerous materials to help him be successful in group activities and independent activities. Providing his will outlined notes, concept maps, or graphs will help him read and comprehend the information being taught. As for allowing him to feel accepted in this classroom by his piers it is beneficial to bring in aspects of his cultural into lessons as much as possible. This can be done by either comparing and contrasting similarities and differences found in each culture or bringing key points of that students background to students attention to give them a better understanding of the students background.
