Think back to the Challenge at the beginning of this module. Ms. Rollison is having trouble with Patrick, who is a model student on some days and is rude and disruptive and refuses to work. Unfortunately, she probably does not have enough information to figure out what Patrick’s triggers are. Although not discussed explicitly in the module, can you think of three methods by which Ms. Rollison could determine his triggers?

What will be an ideal response?


I think one possibility could be that Ms. Rollison could/should watch out for Patrick’s trigger signs. Secondly, Ms. Rollison could simply ask Patrick if he is struggling or if he is having any trouble at home (i.e. not getting enough food, not getting enough sleep, or other facts that would bother him). Lastly, I think that Ms. Rollison could differentiate her instruction and make it more engaging for Patrick.
