First grader Travis sits at a circle table with three peers. He is constantly touching his friends, taking their supplies, or moving into their work space. Miss Jones is hesitant to move him to a desk by himself. Which of the following strategies would be most effective in helping him be successful with the group?
  1. Ask the other children not to talk to him.
  2. Keep the supplies in a group supply box.
  3. Provide Travis with a work tray.
  4. Provide frequent motor breaks.
Explanation
Answer: C-Provide Travis with a work tray to help him stay in his own space. Some teachers use contact paper or tape to define a work space for a child. Once children are given this visual boundary, they are usually very successful in staying within the limits. Keeping the supplies in a group supply box and providing frequent motor breaks may help Travis, as well, but defining the work space is the most effective strategy.
