Unmotivated
Strategies for helping a child with the arousal regulation problem of being unmotivated include:
- Help the student maintain a goal to work toward;
this will help the student sustain engagement in the
task.
Example: "When
we finish our math we can go outside and play".
- Provide consistent feedback.
- Use acknowledgement.
Example: Say
to the child, "I could tell that you understood
the steps because you did all the steps to solve the
problem."
Example: Put colorful sticker on
the assignment page when completed, or for each step
completed for complex tasks.
- Follow demanding tasks with assignments/tasks that
the student can complete successfully.
- Use genuine praise.
