ОглавлениеIn-Seat Behavior
Some students have an increased need for movement owing to their sensory profile. They may engage in humming, tapping a pencil, shifting position frequently, and appearing distracted. It is important to identify if the student’s behavior is interfering with the others’ learning. Sometimes, a teacher is the one who is distracted. Keep in mind that this student may be engaging in some sensory strategies to help him pay attention to the teacher’s instruction.
Solutions!
• Place the student in an area of the classroom where he does not distract the teacher or classmates.
• Provide alternative fidget tools that are less noticeable, such as items to keep in his pocket or ones that do not make noise.
• Let the student keep a hard candy in his mouth to reduce mouth noises.
• Ask the student questions more frequently to ensure he is paying attention. Some children may appear distracted, but they may actually be attending.
• Allow the student to stand at his desk when he needs to.
