sharing about myself...on Friday when I was observing, I was able to participate more in the class discussion and get to share some things about myself more than just about why I am in their class watching them twice a week. Personally I thought that it was kinda a boring day, with not too much excitement. This was the class that I dont feel as though I have gotten as close to as the other and I am not sure why. However, when I was out in the hallway making sure their bathroom break was going smoothly a couple of the girls from the class came up to me and just started talking about whatever they wanted. I thought this was cool because they were the ones who had approached me and were willing to share some things and talk about their volleyball and how the tryouts were coming up and just what they thought of the whole situation. This was neat because I was able to make the connection since I did play for a long time in addition to softball so I was able to talk wiht them as well as understand what all they were talking about. I was also kinda happy that I did not have to do a lot because I was really able to watch my focal student and notice how much his behavior has really changed since he has switched classes. I think the change has helped him to calm down and not be as talkative as he was when he was with all of his good friends. I think it is amazing to watch both of the classes to see how far they have come since the beginning of the semester as students as well as people. I also think it can show that these age kids are very vulnerable and can be changed a lot easier than they will be able to when they get older. This means that as those who are working with them to be careful with how they are changing and what they are becoming.
