[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn’t one kid. These days it’s 1/4 of the class or more. [/quote]

This is the problem.  In my 5th period gen ed class of 30 high school students, I have 11 504s for adhd. All of them have the accommodation of "preferential seating near the point of instruction, away from distractions".  I'd love for you to make my seating chart.[/quote]

OP here - all I'm asking is not to say "If you dont behave, you have to sit next to Larla." 
Or "Larla can teach you this."

Larla gets to be a kid too, not a mini teacher.  [/quote]

I have never in my life stated that. But I have often moved the kid next to Larla for a quarter. Because that kid has to sit next to someone and they will talk less and focus more at that table group and the whole class will come out ahead.

But behind the scenes I am providing 10x the supports to that kid to try to keep them on track, engaged, quiet, on task. Larla isn't doing that. She isn't expected to teach or reteach or tell him to keep his hands to himself.  Larla just isn't escalating the situation like Johnny or Emily does.[/quote]
