Big Spring Elementary

Yesterday was my first day of practicum. I'm doing my internship at Big Springs Elementary in Richardson Independent School District.  Yesterday was an Assessment and ARD day.  My supervisor has one day a week that basically all she deals with is referrals and ARD's for existing students. So all I did yesterday was follow her around to meetings and watch her give the DIBELs which is a reading monitoring assessment.  I actually did a ton of research on the DIBELs last semester in my learning disorders class.  It was interesting seeing it in action. Anyways today is my only day of class.  Normally I'll go to practicum in the morning and then class in the afternoon/evenings but my supervisor was giving more (non SLP) assessments today so I skipped out.
