Crystal Yuan by https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h Upon her enrollment at Harrow Beijing in August 2019 as a Reception student, Crystal was noted for her reserved demeanor within the classroom setting, displaying a reluctance to seek assistance even when warranted. Evidently grappling with a limited command of the English language, observations further revealed deficiencies in both the receptive and expressive domains of Mandarin proficiency. Consequently, Crystal necessitated considerable support across various facets of her academic journey. Presently situated in Year 5, a discernible transformation in Crystal's social dynamics has come to the fore, as she has forged meaningful connections with peers and adults alike. In her interactions, she exudes warmth and an inclination to share her academic endeavors and daily experiences. Noteworthy is her adoption of personalized strategies, such as maintaining personal notes or journals, to facilitate her vocabulary acquisition process. Despite these strides, Crystal continues to rely significantly on external assistance, both academically and pastorally, owing to a persisting lack of confidence in executing tasks and responding to directives in English and Mandarin. This necessitates a tailored support framework to address her ongoing academic challenges and bolster her self-assurance in navigating scholastic requirements. en-us 2024-06-11 02:36:12 UTC 2024-06-19 08:40:03 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/2526171166/479101fe21a63edfe5c979c529a936ff/Screen_Shot_2024_06_11_at_10_58_44.png Crystal is becoming more confident overall, particularly with her social skills. She is more willing to share her ideas and stories. While she is improving in self-control, she remains somewhat sensitive and emotional at times. maywwang https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3030582985 2024-06-18 02:20:02 UTC https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3030582985 Personally, Crystal is very interested in art and highly creative in drawing. Providing her with thinking time related to drawing or incorporating drawing into her learning is beneficial for her. Academically, with encouragement, she is trying harder to meet expectations. When she struggles with activities, she can now often control her emotions without tears. maywwang https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3030602576 2024-06-18 02:34:11 UTC https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3030602576 Crystal is sensitive and emotional, often caring too much about others' opinions and thinking negatively. Praise for every small step is important to her, and continuous encouragement is effective. She can become easily overloaded, so simplifying tasks and breaking them into smaller, manageable steps works well for her. maywwang https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3030756657 2024-06-18 04:57:04 UTC https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3030756657 Crystal listens attentively and maintains positive relationships with most students in class. rcoelho7 https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3032153879 2024-06-19 08:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3032153879 Crystal sometimes works individually, often with guidance from Ms. Bella, but she has also developed the skill to work cooperatively with her peers in PE. rcoelho7 https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3032154962 2024-06-19 08:38:17 UTC https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3032154962 Crystal is sensitive to feedback, particularly in team sports settings, and tends to react negatively, even when the intent is corrective. Using kind and positive feedback has proven to be more effective with her, as she may react with shouting or anger otherwise. rcoelho7 https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3032156500 2024-06-19 08:40:03 UTC https://padlet.com/learningsupport2024/107bockgwocpwy2h/wish/3032156500
