An In-Depth Case Study

-


In the beginning of the year, I produced a case study on three of my students.  This case study follows up on one of them, William, but in greater detail.  I attempted to analyze the school, the role of culture, as well as his speaking, listening, reading, phonics, and socio-emotional abilities.  In addition, I looked at a variety of techniques that could help him in these areas.  

I am happy to report that even though William continues to struggle with reading and listening, he has shown improvements in his phonics and socio-emotional skills.  He is less aggressive and is trying harder to write even though mastering penmanship is a difficult skill for him.  

This case study was produced on an app called Emaze.
