Corian is a student that always has excessive energy. He is very talkative and playful. During lessons he can maintain attention; however, he tends to frustrate his peers that are sitting close to him by constantly moving and making noises. Of the following, which strategy could his teachers use to address the concerns of Corian’s peers while respecting Corian’s social needs?
  1. Move a desk to the corner of a room so that Corian’s movement and talking do not affect his peers.
  2. Put a cardboard divider around Corian’s desk to limit his ability to interact.
  3. Engineer the seating chart considering students that do not conflict with Corian.
  4. Make no changes, as students should learn coping skills.
Explanation
Answer: C - In order to address the concerns of Corian’s peers while respecting Corian’s social needs, his teachers could engineer the seating chart considering students that do not conflict with Corian. Isolating him is inappropriate and punishing. While it is true that students should learn coping skills, not addressing the issue could hurt Corian’s peer relationships, further isolating him socially.
