BPT1501 Assignment 4 Semester 2 (Due 28 Sept 2023)

Assignment 4.
Mr Jones Classroom
Jill requires significant support in activities requiring copying, cutting with a scissor on a
line, comparing objects or shapes, and aligning numbers in a math problem. For example,
when given a multi-digit multiplication problem, she is unable to align the numbers;
therefore, her answers are often incorrect. When shown a geometric shape, she is unable to
reproduce it accurately. Recently she was shown a parallelogram and asked to reproduce it
on another sheet of paper. Although the resulting shape resembled the model, the lines
were not straight and were not to scale.
Tom’s major challenge seems to be his inability to remain on task long enough to complete
assignments. He is easily distracted by any activity that occurs in the classroom. Recently, I
timed the amount of time he was able to remain seated and focused on math examples. Out
of a 45-minute period, Tom was on task a total of 22 minutes.

When Sam has difficulty with a task, he often responds in a negative manner. Recently, he
was working in a small group on a task, when he began to scream at the other group
members, push his chair and walk out of the room. When he returned to the room, he sat at
his desk with his head down, refusing to do any work. Approximately seven minutes later,
he sat up and said he was ready to complete his work by himself, which he did.
