He describes his thinking when he tries to solve it, 'I saw more and more threes everywhere I looked... was the answer in the diagonal or the straight?' (p74).
This shows how Jimmy mixes up the numbers in his head and really struggles to convert numbers into actual answers.]]> 2017-02-22 00:43:36 UTC https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155334144 https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155334329 'I heard instructions but two of the sentences came to me at the same time, one on top of the other, like bunks.  I didn't know which one to choose; you can't have a top without a bottom.'

- difficulty with understanding & comprehending instructions and information.
- needs clear and precise instruction, unlike other students and children]]> 2017-02-22 00:45:07 UTC https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155334329 emolnar1017 https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155334866 Jimmy has trouble staying still in class when he tries to think too hard. When trying to solve a maths problem he describes the energy he felt when thinking of the answer, 'I went from still to running, with no time in between... [I] ran around the chairs and around Mrs Stratham's desk and past the windows and to the door and back again' (p74).
Whilst some children have trouble learning and feel like their brain is racing, Jimmy'd body is physically racing when he can't find the answer and this makes learning difficult for him compared to other children in his class.]]> 2017-02-22 00:49:36 UTC https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155334866 https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155334934 'You sit on that chair and don't move Jimmy.  Don't move.'
Difficult for teachers to manage in the classroom and treat him differently to other students.]]> 2017-02-22 00:50:12 UTC https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155334934 messermeg https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155336160 Have you considered a different program? Have you though of Pine Centre? Mrs Stratham
Lack of interest in actually helping Jimmy, just wants to let someone else deal with it]]> 2017-02-22 01:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155336160 emolnar1017 https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155338350 2017-02-22 01:19:37 UTC https://padlet.com/messermeg/nigecj035s9h/wish/155338350
