I will briefly discuss the background of the student I met with. This student also has an IEP, and is dealing with serious emotional disturbance. Socially she developed positive friendships with other students in the school. However, because she has a condition called enuresis; this is the medical term for wetting the bed, this leads to students teasing her, calling her names, and at times she may suffer from unpleasant smell.

    When looking at her school work and from the information that was previously gathered from sessions with Hailey, it was important to assess her as an oral reader, silent reader, writer, word solver, problem solver, and her comprehension.

Even someone who is inexperienced can determine that multiple circuits can only make a spark and not an explosion. This questions the hiring system for teachers in schools like this. Someone this inexperienced should not partake in the education system.
