My week on Placement

During my week on placement I attended Parkland Primary School. I was assigned the position of helper in a year one class. During the week I was given the task of assisting the pupils with any problems they may find concerning their work and help them overcome them. I helped with many tasks ranging from mathamatical skills to doing crafts and making things for christmas. Within the year there were over 60 pupils all ranging in abilities. It was interesting to observe the different learning styles used and see the difference between the different levels of intelligence. As it was christmas time I did spend an awful amount of time in the hall watching the children rehearse their christmas concert, however I did take some of the children out to draw a picture of their trip to visit father christmas.
