[QUOTE="Andy, post: 193106, member: 5096"] At the 1st meeting, "As a teacher, it is your job to open up the world of education for every student. I would like you to work as a team to do this for difficult child. You may need to be creative in keeping his attention. You also need to recognize when he is about to shut down. His energy will fool you but it is a sign of shutting down. difficult child will work on recognizing this also but will need your help in encouraging him to get control. He has procedures such as calm down pass to help with this. These steps must be implemented. Waiting for the melt down to end and then punishing him for it is not getting him or you anywhere. If you can be proactive and assist in recognizing a melt down you will have an easier year also. Some examples are ............... When you notice.............. you need to .........." Use some of the classroom behaviors he has gotten in trouble for as examples and show how it could better be handled. "When he starts talking too much in class give him a calm down pass" The teachers do not have to know about BiPolar (BP) if there is a chance it will be used against difficult child, they just need to know how to handle difficult child's normal behaviors. If there is a teacher willing to learn more for the right reason to help other kids, then teach more on what BiPolar (BP) is. To have teachers who appear to be giving up on their ability to teach difficult child is so sad. They are the ones who should be working hard to teach - they need to be creative! [/QUOTE]
