Ch 101: Finally a day at home
It was a super busy week. I had been working non stop! It's so tiring. The nature of my job drain me mentally and physically. But I just cant help thinking about my cases. Anyway, my schedule for the past week.
Mon
9 to 12 Overlapping Van on J
She is very impatient when it comes to work. She have very serious tantrums
(rolling on the floor, crying, aggressive towards herself and others (hitting her
head or banging the hand and legs on the floor). Her tantrums could last for
hours. It is quite hard working with her. The function of her behaviour revolves
around task avoidence and attention seeking. It is challenging to balance the
amount of attention given by the "teacher" when such situation occurs.
1330 to 1730 Overlapping at LL (Kindergarden)
During these sessions, the kids were taught on
independent skills
(Washing hands, taking off of shoes, wearing of shoes, toliet training, etc).
play skills
(Proper ways of paying independently or in groups)
social skills
(Requesting to join in, requesting and sharing of things)
art and craft
(Colouring, making of cards, etc --> motor skills)
Tue to Wed JL Camp (Downtown East Chalet)
This camp is meant for our higher functioning kids, which means they are in
mainsteam. Their ages ranges from 5 to 11 years old. You know what? For a
show I dislike so much (Enchanted), I watched it twice. I had to watch with my
kids! Gosh.. Well, maybe it is a good thing as well. Since I had to monitior the
behaviour of my kid, T, I could hardly watch the movie. For the first time, I felt
like a mother. I cant sleep during the night, worrying that my kids will fall off the
bed or being hit by the other kids. 1 of my kid, SC, sleep 360 degrees during the
whole night. (to be continued)
