Secondly, to assist Lee Ling to better cope with sudden changes, Mr Ang can preempt her or the entire class via a written schedule on the board. The schedule will highlight the flow of the lesson which will help students such as Lee Ling with managing their expectations. For example, "In 5 minutes, we will be switching off the lights and fans for 10 minutes.". Additionally, providing a rationale for the activities will help.

Guide the student "5 steps to respond to failures"

Use visual aids like schedules and checklists, and provide time estimates for tasks to help students stay organized and focused.

2. Provide consistent feedback and teach self-monitoring: Offer regular positive and corrective feedback while teaching students to ask themselves questions about their own focus and needs.

3. Model and practice self-regulation: Demonstrate calming techniques like deep breathing during overwhelming moments and encourage students to practice these skills to manage their emotions and stay on task.

Mr Ang: provide a schedule as a visual reminder. Prompt the student early in the day. Assign a buddy as an emotional support to him. Write the changes on the board

Lee Ling: teach him self regulation such as deep breathing. Focus on the objective instead of his "fears". Give him a corner for him to calm down.

Maybe can tweak the content/ strategy to a more secondary singapore school subject focused, rather than general tips fnd in the book. Can include pictures/ videos of secondary school visual resources that has been implemented and effective.
