Child Study!

It's my junior year this year and it's the first year I am doing a field placement! I am excited to finally be teaching kids, but nervous that I am not going to be very good at it. I am working with a child who recently moved here from Iraq, but knows English pretty well. She has cognitive impairments, but does a great job reading and writing all the letters.

The first time we met up we did a few writing things and we read a book together. I look forward to giving her more assessments and figuring out what level of reading she is at. My goal is for her to learn and to benefit from working with me. I am nervous that I will not be good at teaching her, but I am going to try my best.
