One of the things I was asked to do was take pictures of a motivational exercise. One of the second grade teachers in Janice. She has made friends with a lot of us and even brought us someone to do our nails today! (pictures to follow) (tomorrow, I promise)
Janice asked me to be in her classroom to document the giving of motivational gifts. She stood at the front of the class and called the names of the students from the number one score on the exams to the last student. All of the students recieved gifts though, because they all improved.
All except for one small girl who was new, so seeing the gifts, Janice said she would be motivated for the next exams.
She purchased the umbrellas from a shop one of the student's parents owned and used the money the parents provide for this sort of gift.
The students were very excited and giggled as the camera flash went off in the dark classroom that is lit, usually just by sunlight.
I led them out to the field where they all lined up for a picture.
