Working in Special Ed
Its been 6 weeks since starting to work as a Para in a special ed class room. I'm working as a one on one with a child we will name Chase. He is a good kid most of the time but seems like he gives me 10 minutes of time a day to actually teach him. He is 12 years old and can say the abc's but cant pic out a C or E and other letters if he has all 26 letters in front of him. Its tough sometimes cause I try to teach him and if he doesnt want to learn he wont. Our class is a pretty good group its a self contained class with 8 kids total, they are all on different levels so its pretty tough teaching them all in one group activity. Its been a good experience so far and there will definately some more adventures for the rest of the year!
