It can be because he is not the line leader (each student has an assigned weekly jobs) to having to complete an writing assignment. He is a young student and is the youngest of the class. I follow our school behavior plan and he is on RTI 3 for academics. I talk to the parents because his grades are below average and I am concerned about academics. I have included in the my discussions that behavior is an issue. The parents simply state that "he is just trying to play you" or "you are not strict enough". I follow the rules and classroom procedures. What should I do? I believe behavior is a key issue related to his academics Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I know that the student is in tier 3 for academics, but maybe you could move through the intervention process with behavior as well. Speak with the school counselor about some behavior strategies and use a behavior check sheet for documentation. You can use the data from the check sheet to monitor his progress toward meeting the behavior goals.                 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: “If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this” Rated On: March 2, 2017 4:20 am Rated By: eVeQat
