A Grade 7 student avoids group work due to social anxiety. The most inclusive strategy would be:
Gradually scaffold participation with peer support
Inclusive teaching practice requires addressing a learner's specific difficulty, here social anxiety, with sensitivity rather than exclusion or harsh confrontation.
Gradually scaffolding participation with peer support allows the student to build confidence in manageable steps, using supportive classmates as a bridge, which respects the student's anxiety while still working toward full participation.
Permanent exemption denies the student the chance to grow, while public criticism and forced immediate participation would worsen the anxiety and could cause further withdrawal.
Therefore, the correct answer is gradually scaffolding participation with peer support.
