Week #15

Almost there! Monday, I worked on finalizing and organizing some of my different things. I looked again at the learning plan to make sure that I had everything done and in order. In the afternoon, I had the grief and loss group. We had a little too much fun. I find that the students are becoming harder to keep on task, but we got everything on the agenda completed that we needed to. Tuesday, I worked on finalizing some more things as far as my portfolio goes. I am just trying to get a little ahead so that Monday is not as hectic.

Integration question: (Micro) The group that I co-facilitate will be ending this Thursday. I feel that the way that we have prepared the students for the ending is by giving them tools that they can use effectively on their own to deal with their own grief and loss. We have done a variety of exercises and discussed different ways to handle the different emotions (sadness, anger, etc.) that come with losing someone close to them. We have also provided other resources for them. Other group settings and activities that they can become involved in outside of school that might be even more helpful to them.
