Greetings from the third day at an Australian Primary School!
Today was quite an interesting day.....
We began the intervention I illustrated in the post yesterday. Until about 10:30, the intervention was fabulous! The student was participating, listening, and not disrupting! At 10:30, when a transition began from the classroom, she absolutely crumbled, and we had 30 minutes of a very rough time. However, we wrote a contract for the student to sign involving her behavior and the toy in question. After the contract, the student reverted to the perfect behavior! We will be continuing the intervention tomorrow - we'll see how it goes!
Today was an absolutely wonderful day for almost all of my kids. Also, I managed to achieve a legacy for which I have been striving. Today, one of my students said, "Ms. Taylor, why are you wearing matching earrings?"
I nearly jumped for joy! I will continue to wear outrageous and non-matching earrings in order to keep my students' interest at least a little bit:) Haha.
Not much else to say, although I'll hopefully be going to the Queen Victoria Market on Saturday - a huge open air market in the City. I'm excited to see the city from an internal perspective:)
Nothing else to say today, talk to you soon!
