Identifying and Helping Struggling Students
:star: By Si Jian
No :smiley:
Does the student lack confidence :question:
Encourage the student to do what they are good at, and give the student lots of positive feedback to help him to gain confidence.
No :smiley:
Yes :red_flag:
Pull the student out from the classroom, let them participate more smaller group activities, encourage them to express themselves in front of a small group of people in a same level
Break down the struggling area into smaller parts by using differentiated teaching methods and materials
No :smiley:
Yes :red_flag:
Find out what's going on. Take time to sit down with them and ask how they are feeling and what you can do to help them with whatever they are going through.
Review homework together. Review their mistakes. Are they having trouble with a particular class, or overall? Pinpoint their strengths and weaknesses is the first step to fixing the problem.
Set reasonable goals. Break down the larger goal into more manageable mini-milestones. Each time the student achieves a goal ( no matter how small it is), have a little celebration.
Making study fun. Encourage parents to participate to make study fun, for example consider doing something together when their homework is completed. such as taking a walk or making dinner together.
Focus on positive. Praise them for their hard work in those subjects. Let the student know that you have faith in their abilities.
Yes :red_flag:
Meet with the student privately.
It is important that this is seen as supportive and not punitive. Talk to the student, ask them what's going on, and problem-solving about how you can help.
Early Invention:
Learning disabilities can be solved with early invention, assistive technology, preventative strategies, and etc,.
Think about Trends.
is the work refusal only happening during math? or maybe during partner work? Maybe it's only in certain days or certain time. Think about these trends and really delving into the data can help inform the judgements about what's going on.
Getting parents involved.
Require the student to write the homework content down in their homework agenda, and ask his or her parents to sign for the completed homework everyday.
Consider reducing work.
When a student is outright refusing to do work, completing just one item over none is a success.
Differentiate learning.
Assign students with homework or assignments that matching their learning pace.
No :smiley:
Are the students' grades much lower than their peers :question:
Does the student always repeating the phrases like "I hate school', "school is dumb" or I don't like "any subject"?
No :smiley:
Yes :red_flag:
Go public with their learning:
why do students draw, paint and play an instrument or compete? Students seek authentic opportunities to acquire recognition, so we can do things such as invite family members to the class on the day of a debate. We can be sure to provide opportunities for students to perform, to show their skills their peers, their teachers and their family members.
Give the student options to show what they know
: Be creative in allowing new options and learning environments for students who are disengaged.
Make it doable:
We can provide a clear and accessible target that students can strive to achieve.
Use the rule of three:
when designing learning opportunities, we have to think of the rules of three: preparation, practice, and application.
Does the student always miss his or her homeworK or assignments? :warning:
