Just testing if i am doing this right

 The first week was one that had its ups and downs. I thought the group as a whole really came together by the end of the week and found a nice rhythm with the children. I was especially impressed by two occasions. 

The first occasion was after Thursday's work day. The mentors came together and realized a change was needed. The next morning the behavior was radically different. 

The second occasion was on Friday during the latter part of the field trip at the park. There was an uprising within the girls led by Brittany and Hailey. Debbie and Jen quickly put down their attempt to spoil the field trip with a group mediation period with the Starbursts. It was quick and effective thinking. 

 I believe the mentors are on the right track toward consistency. We will be starting with re-teaching the basics with the Lil' Weezy's on Monday starting with going into the classroom and sitting down in silence. 

God Bless America,
