What is this teacher talking about! I don't get it!
y=mx+b
No, This work is stupid!
I hate it here!
Jimmy, can I help you with your work? What is bothering you?
Have tried to read your directions at all?
What we could do is give Jimmy some options. Maybe suggest a small reward if he completes his work, or give him the ability to take a little break after working.
I think it would also be a good idea to set him up with some peers to help him along.
Ann, I really need some help with Jimmy, he is getting so upset and won't even try to attempt his assignments.
Good job Jimmy!
Wow, I cant believe my ideas are good!
Way to go Jimmy! that was a great answer!
You Stop Trying!
I had a great day! I can't wait to come back tomorrow?
