School 4 Visit

Today I visited School 4, but when I got there, Judy wasn't in the room because one of the students was out sick. So, I went to find her in her room, where she was sitting filling out her paper work. Then we went to her next visit in the preschool classroom. This is the boy that has a tube in his stomach, so he can't do to much activity. Judy just stretched him a little and had him reach for object, like a book that I was showing him. She also had him turn his head in different directions, but he was sometimes a little distracted by other people in the classroom. After that, we went to go grab a young man from lunch, but he was also out sick. It's seems a lot of people are getting sick lately. I, myself am feeling a little under the weather and a lot of others in school are sick. Anyway, next Wednesday will be my last visit with Judy and it saddens me, because I am starting to get closer to the children. I think they are getting to feel more comfortable around me too. Some are learning my name.

So Little Time

I can't believe that we already went on our senior trip and now it's over! It really makes me think of how soon the year will be over. It also is really stressing me out that my presentation has to be given in a couple of weeks. These next two weeks are also very busy weeks with my cousin's wedding this weekend and prom next weekend. These events are the kind of things that get you so excited that you just want them to happen and you can't focus on anything else, but I have to try my hardest to stay focused on school work and this presentation.

This morning, in first period, Cindi and a bunch of us were talking about a song to play at graduation and it's crazy that were at the point that we are talking about that. It's hard to have everyone be happy with one song, because some want a rock song and some want a rap song, so I think we are going to go with an older song that some people won't even know. We played a couple of Beatles songs and I really like that idea! Whether someone knows the song or not, the tone of the song will have everyone crying. I almost started crying while the song was playing and we were talking about graduation.

Hook and Anecdote

Can you imagine not being able to do daily tasks on your own, like putting in your contacts, dressing yourself, bathing, or styling your hair?

People with disabilities, like, Cerebral Palsy need help to do those everyday things. I know, first hand, the difficulties people with this disability face. My cousin, and one of my closest friends, was born with Cerebral Palsy. She has trouble with the tasks I said earlier and many other things.


For another part of my presentation, I think I am going to make a video of me stretching my cousin.
