Occasionally, third-grader Katie (who has a mild learning disability) refuses to do an assignment. When this occurs, her teacher does which of the following?
  1. Scolds her and sends a note home to her parents
  2. Sends her to the principal’s office
  3. Provides a packet of alternative, but similar, work that may be less intimidating
  4. Asks Katie to sit in the corner until she complies with the assignment
Explanation
Answer: C-Providing a packet of alternative work is usually enough to motivate a stubborn child. Later, though, it’s important for the teacher to investigate the reason behind the refusal. Usually an assignment seems overwhelming or confusing. Perhaps the child needs additional practice in a specific area and doesn’t want to risk looking stupid.
