16. Teach Them To Wait

Waiting is the best way to trigger a reaction due to anxiety. That time where they aren’t sure what comes next can be a real stomach ripper. Give the class ways to enjoy the wait as they move on to something else. For example, after a student finishes a quiz, they can quietly draw or doodle, read a book, play on their computer, whatever it is that you feel is appropriate for the group that will not cause distractions to the rest of the students. While this is primarily being done for those students that are struggling with anxiety, it also will help the rest stay in line.
