He puts his hand into his pants while doing his work. I try to pull him aside and tell him that big kids don't put their hand in their pants. He says he understands but it seems as though it is a habit that he can not break. It might be supplemented by the parents or that they don't care if he does it or not. I plan on addressing the parents with the issue but what can I do if they become uncooperative. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Pay attention to what is triggering this behavior. Is it a bathroom issue? a nervous thing? After the parent conference start making notes as to when it happens. I would also maybe try giving him something that is quiet for him to hold in his hand.                 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: I agree. If there is a trigger, this will make the issue easier to deal with. Figuring out why he is doing it is the first step. Rated On: October 9, 2017 2:50 am Rated By: aLuruz
