Student outcomes:
Over the course of my time in Room 5, I have been able to develop a strong relationship with Adam and
have seen some really positive outcomes. In the initial phases of my placement, he did not warm to me
straight away (most likely because I was a new and unfamiliar face in the classroom). However, every day at
school I made a conscious effort to chat one on one with him and treat him fairly in the classroom in regards
to behaviour management and learning outcomes. This resulted in Adam feeling like he could confide in me
when he was going through hard times and also when he had any questions or queries. I felt a strong sense of
accomplishment when Adam started to address me when he had questions in regards to school
events/learning/behaviour, as well as his classroom teacher.
In regards to his learning outcomes, Adam was seen to succeed when using the computer-particularly during
spelling. When I was on placement Adam also presented two projects (Livability and 50 Greatest
Australians). Adam worked well to complete both of these. I particularly enjoyed watching him present his
Livability assignment as he made a great effort to explain his slides and face the audience. It has been
enjoyable seeing Adam develop over these past 5 weeks.
