Today in work we had maths which was first class. The 4th graders started to learn about division. Most of the kids flew at this. After was some dance class where 3 women come in to do dancing with the kids out in the courtyard. The girls are highly liked so the class engages well.
During dance I was taken by a teacher and brought up to a different class and i was asked to help a Ukrainian student learn Spanish. It was a chance for both of us to learn a bit there so we just took turns reading out spanish words like animals, places and items.
After this was recess where I sat in the courtyard and watched the kids and talked with a few from my class. Recess is 45 minutes long but usually runs 5 minutes over time, there’s not really a strict system set in place.
After recess we had reading. The class gets split in half where one group goes with one teacher and the other group stays in the classroom. Some kids got to read at their own pace and others took turns reading with the teacher in the classroom.
The autistic child in the classroom is a lot more comfortable around me as well as other kids in the classroom now. I think i’ve met all the teachers now who I need to know for the rest of the week.
