Week 11 Reflection

This reflection discusses a student teacher's experience working with students in different classes. In their first placement, a student was having a very difficult day, engaging in disruptive behaviors like hitting and running away. The student teacher tried different strategies to engage and calm the student but nothing worked. In their afternoon placement with middle and high school students, the student teacher helped students with coding, reading quizzes aloud, and writing an essay outline. The disruptive student's behaviors continued on Thursday, and the student teacher worked to control them and prevent harm. They also assisted other students with finishing projects and homework.

Week 11 Reflection

On Tuesday my student had a very very hard day. the duration of the day

consisted of hitting healing crying kicking off shoes and socks and running away from me as fast

as he could. Throughout the day I did my best to engage him in each activity and guide him with

simple straightforward directions; however, none of these directions helped the situation in fact

they only fueled is discouragement and stress levels. Most of the day consisted of taking him for

walks down the hall, bringing him back into the classroom to rock him on the couch, trying to re-

engage him in the current activity, but nothing worked. Though I tried I could not figure out what

was causing his behavior is that that day. I believe the only thing that I learned was patience. In

the afternoon I switched to middle school and high school students. This started my first full

week with them. I start my day with them in the steam class helping anyone who needed help

with coding. Next I headed to the social studies class with the same group of students, I

observed the lesson given and after the lesson was over I and another paraprofessional took

the students into a separate room to read the quiz out loud and help them with their homework

for that night. The last class that I have for the day is language arts. In this class I help a student

who has hearing problems. I helped her write an outline for an essay on Romeo and Juliet.

On Thursday makes behaviors continued as they were on Tuesday. Almost everything

was the exact same and I did my best to keep his behaviors under control and from hurting him

or any of the other students in the midst of his meltdowns. In the afternoon I helped a student

finish her steam project. She was able to finish it and turn it in on time. In the social studies

class I helped Selena finish her worksheet and her IXL self for her homework she was able to
turn it in the same day. For my last class, language arts, the student I normally help, was gone

so I took her notes for her and took it down to the teacher she would be staying next when she

came back.
