2. Set up a buddy system.

6. Peter - to speak to him personally and check in on him. Call the parents to see if there are other factors affecting Peter's performance in school. Counseling - get a counselor to assess him and his possible learning needs. 

7. Peter - create a calm-down corner for Peter or any other students with emotional needs.

8. Celeste - assign 1-2 buddies to help celeste get adjusted.

Have a conservation with Siva to build rapport and check out his problems in schools and at home. Good to have a close contact with his parents to understand the family background or problems at home.

2. To teach students during CCE about communication with peers. Ask student to list out negative comments that they might have heard before and think about how to convert to positive comment.

3. Teachers to give specific grouping instead of allowing students to choose their own group to avoid left out students. ]]> 2021-10-19 03:30:15 UTC https://padlet.com/pdunit2_1/6q2e9f7v1yurqg7h/wish/1826004219
