QUESTION: I teach fourth grade. I have a student who always loses the papers that he’s supposed to have in spite of the fact that students have colour-coded folders for each subject and were taught at the beginning of the year to put every paper in a folder, and to not have loose papers in their desks.
He is doing this intentionally to get attention. I know this because when he is asked to stay in at recess to find the paper, he will find it almost immediately.
