Typically, Jimmy will yell across the room if it is a preferred adult, disrupting the rest of the class. We don't want to stop the verbal communication with other adults and peers, but want Jimmy to be able to remain focused on a task when another adult enters the room. Also, we want him to follow classroom procedures by raising his hand to interact with adults/peers when they enter the room. In reading, Jimmy is becoming a more fluent reader. Although he is becoming more fluent, he needs to be reminded to slow down and read the full word. Many times he misses the ending of words or adds suffixes to the end of words. He also struggles to

He is able to pronounce the words and read without much struggle and according to his grade level.

But, just like any other student his age, there are a few things in which he can improve on that would help him become a better reader. This being said, main area that Juan struggles in is comprehension.…

Transitions are defined as the times during the day when children move or change from one activity to another. These actives could include entering in the classroom, moving to different centers, going to lunch or recess and even going home. Transition times have to be planned carefully and implemented early, because by minimizing transition, we can then maximize the time children spend engaging in developmentally appropriate actives.…

It is imperative to understand that these triggers cause chemical reactions in the body and brain that prime the heart, lungs and muscles to fight, flight or freeze. Children begin to become emotionally dysregulated, which can appear as aggressive, agitated and angry or disengaged, numb and inattentive. Instead of giving warnings of possible punishment, teachers can try to give offers of help or direct the child to participate in self-regulation activities.

When closing my reading lesson, I asked if anyone wanted to share one similarity or difference they wrote with the class. He immediately had his hand held high with a smile on his face. Of course, other students raised their hands as well, so I began by calling on students who hadn’t given an input throughout my lesson.
