While I was interpreting the test data I thought about my observations of the student during testing. The observation of the length of time he spent on problems and his often use of his fingers to calculate basic math, initiated my research. I began finding a plethora of research about the importance of math fluency for student success. Math fluency is a student’s ability to quickly recall math facts. A student who has developed automaticity with basic math facts is able to use their entire working memory on the higher level math instead of squandering some of their limited working memory to figure out all of the math facts necessary to solve the problem.…

In addition to an evaluation of Jackson’s cognitive processing skills, an assessment of his social and emotional functioning was also collected to determine how these factors may be contributing to his overall functioning in school.

A clinically significant score (T=70 or higher) suggest a high level of maladjustment. Scores in the At-Risk ranger (T=60-90) may identify a significant problem that may not be severe enough to require formal treatment or may identify the potential of developing a problem that needs careful monitoring. In addition, the Adaptive scales At-Risk Range fall…
My case study student is a second grader who loves mystery books, video games and playing with friends. My first day in the classroom before being assigned my case study student, I almost immediately bonded with my case study student over the stories of Goosebumps, after that he constantly asked me to sit with him during lunch and asked me for help. I would consider him to have a limited internal dialogue because he often says whatever is on his mind, but it frequently turns out hilarious and gives his audience of peers a good chuckle. The literacy portion each day is centered around the daily five and in one station they walk to reading. The students work on a new high frequency word where they have to an antonym, synonym, a rhyme and write…
The Hampton Project, led by Dr. Cheryl Janifer LaRoche, Is where I worked as an intern. The project which investigates the lives and fates of hundreds of African Americans who were enslaved in the Hampton plantation, It seems mainly a historical-anthropological project. However, in its core it is also related to representation and social and political power -including the work that was assigned to me- which was sorting and finding the names of the people who were enslaved in Ridgely’s properties. Again, as the project appears to be mainly a scholarly effort to tie parts of history to the present, it is hard for one not to view the system of slavery as a result of a hegemonic culture. Moreover, this systematic aggression towards certain ethnic…
