| Abstract |
Kyane is a small boy in Year 4 at Erdington Hall Primary. He has an Individual Behaviour Plan and an Individual Educational Plan. Being asthmatic he is a regular absentee. Consequently he is often behind with school work and not socially integrated in his class. He receives a good deal of attention in the classroom from his dedicated teacher Harriet and her Teaching Assistant Julie. Kyane and the class are having a numeracy lesson on 3D shapes. After some mental limbering up with Brain Gym the children take part in a mental maths exercise. They are then asked to draw some 3D shapes before identifying what type of polygons would make up their drawings. Finally the children construct their own 3D shapes from nets. Throughout the lesson it is a challenge to keep Kyane engaged and on task, but he demonstrates an understanding of what polygons are and displays creativity in constructing them, even if he does get angry and frustrated in the process. |
