Covering for a resource teacher in Elementary school today. The resource teacher left detailed instructions and materials on their desk and the school seemed to be well run with a mix of push in and pull out support. RTI time with five students was focused on long o sound and one boy thought it was funny to identify the pictures as "pee" and "poo". Silly behaviour from him and others in the group ignored his potty humour to complete the task, asking for help when they weren't sure what the picture was representing, "woe" for example was a difficult one. Classes where I pushed into were busy with students engaged in the lessons. I pulled out an ISP student and went through alphabet flashcards with them as their English speaking skills were extremely limited. Students played "bench ball" in gym which is a version of dodge ball where when you are hit you stand on a bench on the opposing team side and if you catch a ball from your team you release all the captured teammates.
