OCD 18 year old student in Transition to Work Program.

KylieK12-14 — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 17:11:41 +0000

I currently have student who is struggling with OCD. Each day is like starting over for him. Visual and verbal prompts to walk into the school, to navigate to the classroom, open his Chromebook and complete daily tasks. We have asigned him the same tasks each day, provided picture checklists, and verbal prompts. He seems to be degressing each day. He expresses he is worried about summer break coming up then starting back to our class in Aug, that it is a lot of changes. Any other suggestions or websites with more info and resources on OCD and tools to help him feel more relief?

Tiered support

Ms.C — Sat, 31 Jan 2026 20:44:33 +0000

I am a behavior interventionist and I am so happy I found this site. I was struggling with understanding the difference between the tiers and how and when to decide to move up in the tiers. We have high levels of disrespect referrals especially in kindergarten but across all grade levels. I am going to use the In school suspension consequence as an opportunity to teach these kids some skills by using the interventions that are listed in PBIS World.

Kinder Student

Our school has a kindergarten student that is physical with classmates. He constantly pushes and hits classmates. This is a problem when moving around the classroom and going to, from, and at recess. He has had is recess taken away and has been sent home. Besides parents picking him up from school when called, there is not much parental support. When teacher tries to talk to him, he just smiles at her.

Suggestions, Please.

Low Attention

pgraham98 — Fri, 31 Jan 2025 20:34:44 +0000

What strategies have you implemented in your classroom regarding student's who have low attention, but are not disruptive for the most part? This student always has wandering eyes, occasionally goofs off with other students around him, and just cannot focus during a lesson. This is first grade, no diagnosis, no medication, is starting to get more DNPs as grades (do not pass). Other qualities of him: very well-mannered, kind, but very unorganized and messy.
