What are some of the thoughts that you were thinking about, while you were in your Zone.

A

A

All right, the issue that you had was frustrated because you was doing something with your chair, so were you thinking about it in your Zone? No, what was on your mind.

B

A

Was on your mind, so you wasn't feeling anything I saw you were playing with Ben. Did that help calm me down? It did so. You can put that right. Tell me your symptoms. If I plan with Ben.

A

I know it's a distraction. Over there just focus on me.

A

You were able to calm down by playing with your friend, Ben. Okay, you can write that I'll help. You write. It was.

A

A

Very good Ellie.

A

It's a very good indeed, all right so up here, you said you was frustrated because you was doing something in class with your chair. So what were you was leaning back in your chair? The teacher asked you to stop and why didn't you stop? Because.

B

A

Didn't want you, and so you was just in a mood where you didn't want to listen to your teacher. Why.

A

Because what go ahead and stop your timer and give me a second, then.

B

A

Don't know what were you upset about because you usually listen to your teacher, so what was causing you not to listen to your teacher Ben? You can come sit over here at the table. Please.

B

A

Ahead and write your reflection sentence and then I'll be with you in just a moment: okay,.

B

B

A

Was doing what you wanted to do so, but why, though, that's what I want to know, because you know what you're supposed to do when you're in school right right? So why were you choosing to be defiant?

A

You needed a break? Is that what it was? So why didn't you ask your teacher for a break.

A

You know those are your options. You could take a break inside the classroom. You could take a break outside your classroom or you can call for me to take a break with me. We talked about the steps.

A

And calming down so what's the first step you could have did when you're in a room when you started to get frustrated.

B

A

A break and if you wanted to take a restart break, you just call for me: okay, all right Eric. Are you calm and ready to go back to class.

A

Let's do a quick temperature check.

A

How you feeling now.

A

A

Now, let's see if it's different from early, you said you're, sleepy and you're bored, which is the same thing so you're not ready to go back to class.

Okay, all right so I see your reflection. You said you feel good. Now you feel better all right! So up here you said someone was aggravating you Casey, what's going on with you and Caitlin in class yelling, just yelling out, not not necessarily yelling at you. So how do you think we can handle that next time? Because if she's not yelling at you, it's not an attack at you. She's just yelling out in class take a break. Yes, you can definitely take a break.

A

Do you want to do an outside break or restart break next time.

B

A

Are you able to recognize when you need a break if she's yelling out in class or do you need someone in your class to give you a reminder, you.

B

A

Yourself, you can oh.

B

You want to try yourself, I, don't do it tell myself I.

A

Absolutely will so I'm gonna go ahead and right here to let Miss Moe know that next time there's yelling going on in class you're going to take a break and then I'll call her and let her know that sometimes she may need to remind you. Okay, all right. We can do that. Yeah Ben will ask for a break.

A

Next time and remind her when you take this back to her, that I'm gonna call her and give her another update. Okay, all right! You ready to go back to class yep.

A

B

B

A

All right we're in Reflections what was on your mind when you were in your Zone.

A

I need to look.

B

Oh look say again: I'm looking I, don't need to get back all right regulating.

A

Your emotions in class all right so go ahead and tell me what's going on how you feel right now, one quick sentence: I can help. You write the sentence. If you need me to.

A

What's your sentence.

A

Just say the sentence to me: I'll help you write it.

A

All right, let's try it again. I want you to tell me the sentence and I'll help. You write the sentence.

A

You should not get mad. Okay, should it's s-h-o uld.

A

I should not get mad.

A

Do you need help with that uh-huh.

B

B

A

Your sentence was I should not get you're writing mad I'll. Let you write mad, but what's another word you could use instead of mad frustrated.

B

A

That's a juicy word I, like that. A lot upset anything like that. Go ahead and put your punctuation.

A

All right, let's talk about this up here, he was frustrated because you was looking for something. So one thing that I noticed what you said where I see growth in you is that you recognize that you shouldn't have been mad. While you was looking for something so regulating your emotions, you're starting to do a really really good job of regulating your own emotions.

B

A

So you should ask for help. Those are all good strategies that you can use to make sure that you don't blow up anymore and you've been doing really really good. I really don't even know what to write down here, because you did what you were supposed to do in class. You felt yourself getting mad and you tapered it back and what's another thing that you can another strategy that you can do when you're getting upset.

B

Oh okay, go do this.

A

Speak up, I can't hear you baby I'm.

B

Right here and I can't hear you, you can go to your desk uh-huh.

B

A

Like little fidgets to help you calm down.

A

Just take a brief break. All of those are kind of like breaks. Right. Brandon is doing well with regulating his emotions when frustrated.

A

Very good: can you go ahead and do another temperature check for me.

A

Let me check it out: oh I'm, sorry I'm, rushing you my bad.

A

And do you need me to read any of them to you or you got them, you good all right. Let's see silly happy amused loving these are all fantastic ones. Open, bored and sleepy all right, ready to head back to class BG is calm.

A

All right, good job, Mr Lopez, come back. Make sure you take this commission Lopez. Okay,.

A

And BG is headed back to class.

D

I felt, like you were a real stressed yesterday: I didn't even see you at school until like six periods, so we're gonna try something I do when I'm stressed and we're just gonna color for a little bit. We're gonna talk we're going to ask the same kind of questions. I'm gonna check in with you the same way, we're just gonna.

D

Do it kind of alleviate some stress and see if this is a good coping mechanism for you guys, because unless you try a coping mechanism, you might not know if it works for you or it doesn't work for you. So you gotta find a a page and I got Brandy and got some crayons here.

D

E

D

A stupid, good or stupid bad I don't know both probably.

D

I've been um purposely saying the word you got me twisted up and at the bust at the Bus Loop just to see if I can get some reactions, and you know like normal. The kids are looking at me like I'm out of my mind for using um language that it's there. So that's my new favorite saying Brandy, um you got me twisted up so I'm saying it wrong. Is what you're telling me it's.

E

Just Twisted you got me twisted.

D

I guess I don't do this like flying unicorn hamster because that's something that I've always wanted to see so Brandi how's life going with you how's Mom I'm good and see um how's her job doing. Did she get a job at Wingstop? Should I be jealous?

D

She did yeah I know where I'm going.

E

D

Food free Wingstop.

E

And we stopped a bit different too. She.

B

Said she went to her job.

E

A

Yesterday um about it.

D

Did you care to us no.

B

I was too upset yesterday.

D

So what were you upset about.

E

I, don't want to say that okay.

D

Well, your name did come up well, I was talking to some other kids I'm, not gonna name names. You know how it is. I, keep your privacy safe. One.

E

D

How do you think it makes me feel like what I'm talking to you and your phone goes off.

E

D

You were telling me something important, okay and all of a sudden I said hold a minute and I answered my phone. Would that make you feel important.

E

I gotta answer my phone hold on.

B

Let me take this, but.

D

Let her answer the question, though so, would it make you feel important so when, when we're talking to people about important stuff, don't answer the phone? Okay, there's a household rule in my house that we don't even let our phones be at the table, because it's dinner time today.

D

As I was saying before, your phone went off, I can't talk to you about who, but I can't tell you that your name came up, but I just want to make sure that you're not.

B

um No I barely talk to anybody. I'm.

D

Just trying to make sure that you're not going back and forth between two groups of students trying to to get things started.

A

No because I, barely I I've been talking, stop talking.

D

I, don't think Ruben believes you.

E

Because Ruben I barely talk to me.

D

So Reuben changing, uh subject to you for a minute. What were you so stressed out if you care to share yesterday.

D

Like a friend here at school, your lady friend.

D

C

D

uh uh I fight with with her, are you guys good now or no, no I'm, sorry about that? It always hurts when you care about somebody and it doesn't, and but I'll tell you what, while I knew something while I knew something was up Reuben now that I know what you were going through, and the fact that I didn't see you up in my office. That shows a lot of growth because normally I feel- and you can correct me if I'm wrong.

D

That would be something that might trigger a bunch of responses that we wouldn't want from from.

E

A student well.

D

You agree with last year, so you do. You do see some of that growth that you're making correct awesome.

D

Do you have any plans for the holiday Brandy.

E

B

D

You're going to a camp, maybe if.

E

She's going to sleep with him: oh.

D

Cam yeah I told you I have a good talk with him. I felt like he was not dancing around so he's actually listening to me. It's kind of like that phone thing right and.

E

Somebody actually pays attention.

D

So I I feel like he was definitely trying to help and have that conversation because I told him I'm like he.

C

D

Bust into my room and expect me to do something for him when I asked him to do something right have.

C

D

That happen to you, where someone expects you to do something, but they don't respect you. How does that make you feel.

E

D

About you, Ruben has that ever happened to you um because I know you had that problem with that one teacher right or they expect you to do something and you're like nope, not gonna. Do that.

E

D

How is that teacher doing.

E

D

Have you um tried to get to know him a little bit more.

E

No I just missed myself because.

D

He's a cool cool teacher. He will look out for you if you, if you get to know him it's hard for teachers, because they have 25 students in their classroom. So generally the students, you know they care about all their students, but the students they get to know are the ones that make that effort.

D

You know to go out of their way because they're so busy. What about you? Robin? You get a plans.

E

D

D

Your friends come over, or is it just you out there shooting hoops.

E

Trying to be out there.

D

So cam lives in that area. Yeah all right. Okay,.

E

D

Yeah I did hear she just moved. Miss Paul had a good advocate for you. If I want to look out for you, hey can I can I. Ask you something. I know I know you know the answer to this. So I really just need you to hear me. That's a good question where, where are our skateboards supposed to be kept during the day.

E

D

E

D

Campus during school time, so I had a report that you're right in your school, your skateboard after the Bell Rings through the middle of the campus.

E

D

You're still on campus, so can we um not ride it until we get off campus, or at least at least to the crosswalk, not through the middle of the courtyard, because guess what that does.

D

It's a safety ad or Hazard. A lot of kids are trying to walk in the same spot. At the same time,.

D

So it sounds like we got two weeks of just relaxing and chilling, but is there any work we can be making up.

E

D

You guys need me to pull that up for you and give you a list all right. Let me do that, for you really quick.

E

D

Kudos for knowing exactly how many missing assignments you guys have.

D

Meanwhile, you know that when we get back from break, we only have like about five days. That is correct, so you guys are on top of knowing about your grades.

D

But how are we going to make sure that we're not failing, so that we can move on to.

E

D

What I can tell you is I I know both of you are very smart. Not a a lot of kids will come in here. They don't even understand that they have missing assignments. You know approximately how many missing assignments you have so you're, both very capable and smart.

D

um You knew exact the exact number.

B

D

So what I'm going to do is I'm going to print this out, I'm going to highlight it most teachers will give you some credit or all credit. If you do it.

B

E

And this is easy work too I just don't do work in my account. Sometimes.

D

And my paper is out.

D

So Brandi, do you actually do you like coloring, is a stress, reliever.

D

I'm sorry I, just gotta get some paper in here. Clearly, I'm not prepared.

D

What about you Reuben? Have you you both have very good coloring skills.

D

Is this something you've done I.

E

Used to color it out.

D

Mom likes coloring.

E

She needs to buy.

E

Something used to do when we traveled to on planes.

D

Yeah and how do you feel it does help you as a coping mechanism, because we definitely want to as we get older, have a come up with coping mechanisms for what are you listening to? What's your.

E

D

Jersey Club, music who's, your favorite Jersey Club, Music person.

E

D

All right, that's a question: how much um how many cuss words.

E

D

Okay, because you know Jaden Winfield, he gave me a suggestion of who I should listen to. That was. um That was a little bit much um no.

F

D

Mean I'm sure the music I listened to growing up, my parents would have said was inappropriate um and, and they didn't like it, a generational thing correct, um but it wasn't really my type of music but you're telling me your type of music might be a little bit different.

D

So what we're looking for for you Brandi is we're looking at intensive reading and pre-algebra is something that you want to to work on. Do you know who, in terms of reading.

D

Like these, the ones I'm circling are the ones that are going to be the most important to to work on over the break.

D

So that is a problem, isn't it so when we want to when we want to do the the right thing, it's hard to do the right thing. If we don't have the resources we need, so how would we go around fixing that problem.

D

Well, let's brainstorm, probably being an adult is, is brainstorming. The problem and I have one, but I want to give it to you off the top of my head. Until you give me one.

D

How would you Reuben solve that problem? If you didn't, she says I don't have internet.

E

D

So maybe someone would have that resource. Maybe Cameron has a printer I.

F

D

Have you wouldn't want to have to ask some Cameron for your work, but what about Reuben? Do you have a printer at home, okay, so Reuben's not gonna work.

C

D

Who else do you know that would help out.

E

D

Let's pull that.

D

Have I not helped you out, so could you ask, could you ask me for.

E

Help yeah, okay,.

G

Today we are going to do this. Anatomical landmarks activity- and we have all of these different anatomical landmarks listed here. uh Do I expect that you know all of these. Of course, I do not expect them for you to know all of them.

G

Some of them, I do think, are pretty common, like I, think that you know the gluteal region, for example, and so what you're going to do, you're going to break up into groups of three you're going to get with your partners you're going to cut all of these out, and then you will pick one of the people in your group to be the model, and you will tape these on to the model. I will help you throughout the process, but I do want you to guess.

G

If you do not know, don't leave any of these out just because you don't know where they are. Are there any questions?

G

Okay, so one for this group, one for this group and one for you guys so go ahead and break up into your groups, cut out these terms find a model for your group.

G

um There's three rows of tape here, so I think I just took your roll of tape.

F

I have a roll of tape.

G

Oh my God, my back is to this side I.

A

Got I got it one more.

E

It sounds like it sounds like.

A

Oh for sure, for sure excellent.

G

Guess excellent guess.

A

G

Have you ever been in a car with those little pillows on your low back, I am kind of giving you a hint.

F

C

B

I can't reach back there.

B

Okay, let's see.

B

G

Method, good method, yes, who's, going to be the model in this group, excellent.

F

F

G

As an antebellum before.

F

The Civil War.

F

A

Axillary and our potatoes, oh.

G

Nice, nice, that's sad, you're, the ones we know so then. What does uh axillary mean? Where are you going to put the axillary sticker excellent nice.

F

The ones right now.

G

Okay, that's a good idea and then you can guess on the ones that you don't know.

G

C

G

G

Sure why don't you just put it on one of the eyelashes? Oh no.

F

Don't do that at all tear them off like orbital I'm thinking it's like a circle because, like an orbit like an orbit around the Earth, it's like Circle.

G

F

Face is like a circle.

G

So her face, you think, is orbital. Her eye is sitting in the I orbit of the skull.

F

G

Just the eye, so it's kind of still in the right place. It's.

F

Not the right idea, yes,.

G

You have definitely were thinking.

F

The right way with.

G

Circles: okay, good.

F

G

I said it means before you said it.

F

Is on the front yeah, you said: okay, cephalic right.

G

Cephalic so like a cephalopod, what does that mean.

A

G

Crazy wow, that is not, that might be a term you've never heard of before. So you might just have to guess, and if that's your guess, that's great.

G

A

C

E

F

G

Excellent weasel.

F

F

G

G

Deltoid very good: do you have any others? Oh yeah calcaneus.

C

G

The same thing: what.

B

Okay, bugles sure.

F

So that's like part of your arm so like the axillary and think it's like the stomach region, because we did what's in the word last week and like that's like the middle part. So.

G

Have you ever heard of people wearing ax, deodorant yeah? Where does that go armpit, so axillary actually means armpit.

G

S but you can tape it onto the armpit. Pardon me excuse me.

G

So cephalopod, you guys learned about cephalopods in biology. What does cephalopod means? Celiac.

B

G

Interesting yeah.

B

Yeah I don't know.

G

What does POD or pedal mean.

G

Foot so cephalopod, like head foot like an octopus, so cephalo means head.

F

G

The whole head, and then cervical excellent guests, but really cervico means neck. Okay, and so cervical cancer, for example, is cancer of the neck of the uterus. But cervical is.

C

G

Is the cervical region yep.

G

It will we will gently, pull it from your hair, deltoid where's, this one um so lumbar. Have you ever sat in a comfortable chair with a pillow that supports your low back yeah? Yes, those are called lumbar pillows, so your low back, yes, is lumbar pillow you're welcome.

G

How are we doing excellent good, very.

C

G

B

G

G

F

Like isn't your whole body like more vertebrates.

F

Thoracic goes here: I know that one yeah that works because in the ant there's the thoracic part.

G

F

B

And sternum also I'm gonna put right.

G

There, that is, your breastbone.

F

G

C

Never thought of that. Never.

B

G

I haven't ever thought of that.

G

Joke I've never heard.

A

G

Knew what you meant, yeah and I've never thought of that ever.

C

F

B

Yeah digital yeah.

F

G

Have you guys ever heard of carpal tunnel syndrome.

F

Your granny so I see thoracic and I'm thinking, Gray's Anatomy, o thoracic surgery.

G

Yes, where are they working they're.

F

Working like in the Heart Like near like the lungs.

G

That whole chest area, so you could put this on the front or the back of her.

G

That would work that whole the rib cage makes the thoracic cavity where the Hearts and lungs.

F

G

Worked that worked see that Gray's Anatomy is educational after all, very educational.

G

How are you guys oral nasal, abdominal, pelvic, femoral, patellar, excellent, oh sternum, sternum, vertebral deltoid, so at the base of your spine. If you look at the skeleton up there at the very bottom of the spine, you see that kind of triangular shaped bone that is called the sacrum, so that would be your sacral region. So if you turn around again we're gently going to put this right there, so that would be the sacral region orbital oral cephalic, cervical brachial. Those are great, keep on going you're doing great.

G

hmm Popliteal I.

E

G

um That is one that is a term that you've probably never heard of so I would like just kind of just I. Don't know try to think of I would just guess what hasn't been labeled yet.

F

We have like not very many on her main leg: okay,.

F

Her calves, maybe how.

G

About if we go just above them, so the back of the knee or the posterior of your knee is the popliteal region. There you go perfect excellent.

G

F

F

A region that you can like break.

G

G

Well, it's not a freebie, you just happen to know it that doesn't make it a freebie I feel like you are leaving some of the easy ones for last yeah.

F

Because we were trying to figure out the harder ones, first, excellent.

G

Yeah I think you've, given yourself put yourself in a good position.

F

Umbilical cord yeah, that's crazy! That's.

G

Your belly button, that's good.

F

I, don't have one of those.

G

C

Afraid you do unless.

G

You were the very very first person ever created. You do not. You have a belly button, I mean who knows, because it's a it's from you, your mother right, so.

B

E

G

We are done with this. Okay.

F

From psychology, oh.

E

B

G

B

G

Occipital lobe of the brain is back there, so that is the occipital region.

F

I'm thinking, if you have cervical birth, it's below it's below your abdomen.

E

F

Have a cervical birth! So that's what I'm thinking.

G

F

G

That's a very good guess, and you hear about women getting cervical cancer, but really that is a cancer of the neck of the uterus and so cervico actually means neck. So that is the cervical region.

G

Didn't know that.

G

I'm coming excuse me, you guys are doing great.

F

G

F

No, we just randomly put.

G

That, oh something you put randomly yeah, yeah, okay, um so yeah, yeah, sorry I, didn't hurt that bad, but I was expecting more. Oh, okay, that's very funny! So you were reacting preemptively. So bugle is cheek. I! Think of she said a bugle like think of you're using a bugle and what that does to your cheeks, how you puff out your cheeks. So that's one way to remember that.

G

um Turn thoracic and take that tarsal. Take that tarsal one. So where is, let me see the rest of your hands turn oh grab that carpal right there on your shoe. So have you ever heard of carpal tunnel syndrome? Yes, where is that? Where does that hurt.

B

Yeah I thought it was in your.

G

Phone, so it is in your wrist. You get it from a lot of repetitive motion like sitting in a computer and typing all the time, and so carpal is wrist and then tarsals would be ankle the bones of your ankle and then digital could be fingers or toes that's good and then oh, can you grab that popliteal one?

G

It's right there. So popliteal is a tricky one. It's probably one that we've never heard of before, but popliteal is actually the back of your knee.
