The same girl that I was sitting next to in circle time came and sat next to me during our letter learning! We learned today about the letter "B" she was not wanting to have anything to do with the letter " B" the entire time I was helping her. I would point out words that had the letter "B". She would just then start to scribble over the top of them. I would then read her a poem and we would underline the letter "B" again she just wanted to scribble. So I just decided to have her trace over the letter on a sheet that already had the letter "B" trumped on it. But that took nearly two seconds. Finally we got to play bingo and that made her happy! So I felt so relived because it was so stressful and frustrating! As we were playing Bingo she was very hesitant on which letter was the right so I had to help her out extensively. But we got Bjbgo eventually and the bell rang then she ran off to play at recess!
After recess was time for the computer lab with the 4th standard, we did the math. It was easier than the sixth standard, however I did still struggle with some of the problems. The problems were mostly on writing out the numbers in extensive form. For example like spelling out 757,458. Or something along those lines. What made me very happy was that Sudah is in this class and so I got to sit next to her and help her out a little bit. I learned that she is a very smart cookie! The boy I was helping was struggling significantly, he wanted me to tell me the answers basically to all the problems. I felt bad because I didn't know how to explain the question the computer was asking him. But I did eventually find some ways to help him out a little bit.
Our next activity was value education. This is the class about self confidence. I got a boy in the fifth standard. We had to think of some situations in which we had self confidence. I came up with an example of when I had to get up in front of the class and do a presentation ( although that was really not a good example). So we also had to do a skit.
In our skit we had the two Indian kids kids draw a picture then we went in front of the class and told them that they were afraid to present the picture but me and the chaperone were encouraging them to do it! Then we say back down. Sorry that was kind of confusing but it's hard to explain.
Next we had PE and it was super hot! We played soccer with the third standard kids. It was super fun I tried to stay out of their way put kick the bal here and there to get it going a little faster. The only down side was the heat, becuase he sun was shinning directly down. Then we got to have lunch or just a break
I went back to the school for computer lab with the fifth standard and they were all doing soo well! I was very impressed! They did not need much help. The main thing they were focusing on was finding how many thousands, ten hundredths, etc were in the millions, ten millionths place, etc... Some were also working on Roman numerals.
Once the bell rang we went back outside for P.E. This was kind of a hard/ good period for me. I had it with Sudah and the first thing I had to do was tell her I was leaving tonight. What was hard as well was she slipped this little stone into my bag, so that I would remeber her. I walked her around her lap and the tears started to break that's when my heart just sunk and I felt the tears run... I did hold it back becuase I knew showing her would be the worst thing I could do so I was happy and played as many games wih her and made her chipper as can be! I do get to see her one last time at play time tonight and I am going to spend every last minute with her.
Thank You Sudah
