Today, we focused.

March 8th, 2005

As I picked up the kids from their classrooms, Jack informed me, “Today I’m going to focus!�? Daniella agreed that she too would focus today and showed me the gesture for focusing in sign language. I was relieved to hear this announcement because the last time we met things were very … unfocused. They are excited about the extra attention, excited to see each other, and excited about special snacks. Just like any group, even a very small group like ours, it takes time to come together and develop norms. And they did focus much better today – or at least, Jack and Emilio didn’t get into a verbal sparring match – although we still need to work on what it means to listen!
