i'm exhausted!!! working with these kids takes all my patcience and i have none left for the adults in my life.most of today and its going to be like this every day i have my internship i believe i will not be hanging out with other people until dinner time and then only barley on other days sure i'll hang out most likely and be fine but on monday and wednsday that will not be happening.
today was insane! we had some good ignoring muscles (that is where a child chooses to ignore the other one who is giving them problems and trying to get them into truble) but that just all fell apart as the day progressed. it seemed that telling them they were doing a good job was a bad thing, for soon after they would start missbehaving. one of the boys and i are getting along very nicely i think, he is one that has put time and effort into making himself seem helpless and making others do things for him and he likes new people because they don't know yet what he does so they help him do his work. i now know these things but i'm still the newest person and he does like doing things with me so today we worked on a project together i had to be strict with him but he seemed not to mind much especially since as we were typing, rather he was poking out what we were transfering and i could see he was getting really tired of it and so was i, plus a lot of the other children had choosing time (where they choose what they do, kinda like center time) so i helped him by him reading to me and i typed it up so it went much faster. whenever he got distracted or started yelling at someone he had to be the one to type but that wasn't very much the yelling thing for the moment he started i would try and get his attention back and we would get back to what we were doing, he even got a bonus sticker for his good work with me.
(i was going to type more on this one but i forgot about it and now its saterday and so i don't remember what i was going to write on wednsday...)
