00:00:02,029 --> 00:00:04,248
Teacher: Hey, Kai. Let’s revisit what happened earlier. Okay?

00:00:04,248 --> 00:00:04,905
Kai: Sure.

00:00:04,905 --> 00:00:06,467
Teacher: I’m going to use this form to guide our conversation.
[touches debriefing behavior form]

00:00:06,467 --> 00:00:07,210
Kai: Sure.

00:00:07,210 --> 00:00:13,315
Teacher: [picks up debriefing behavior form] Cool. I saw you get
upset and run out of the classroom. Umm can you tell me about what

00:00:13,315 --> 00:00:15,033
happened from your perspective?

00:00:15,033 --> 00:00:22,164
Kai: I knew I was gonna have to have a turn. I don’t know how to
read all the words, and everyone else knows it.

00:00:22,164 --> 00:00:28,402
Teacher: I see. So, you were already upset before you even started
and then when it was your turn, you ran into a tough word. What

00:00:28,402 --> 00:00:30,321
did you do to deal with all of that?

00:00:30,321 --> 00:00:32,699
Kai: I don’t know. I got angry and ran away.

00:00:32,699 --> 00:00:35,194
Teacher: Yea. How did doing that work out for you?

00:00:35,194 --> 00:00:38,549
Kai: Not good. Now I look bad in all kinds of ways.

00:00:38,549 --> 00:00:43,296
Teacher: I can totally understand you feel that way, but I think
your classmates like you and appreciate you and you don’t have anything

00:00:43,296 --> 00:00:46,912
to worry about. But is there something else you could try next time
that might work better?

00:00:46,912 --> 00:00:48,229
Kai: Can I skip my turn?

00:00:48,229 --> 00:00:53,937
Teacher: That’s a great idea. Then next time we can just agree
if you come to a word that you don’t know, just popcorn to someone

00:00:53,937 --> 00:00:54,878
else. Okay?

00:00:54,878 --> 00:00:55,614
Kai: Okay.

00:00:55,614 --> 00:00:59,606
Teacher: You can also always ask for help. There’s no shame in
that. Umm, I’ll also try to give you some time to look at the passages

00:00:59,606 --> 00:01:05,472
in advance if you want. Okay? Maybe we could practice the first
sentence and have you start the popcorn activity the next few times.

00:01:05,472 --> 00:01:09,037
Kai: I would like that.

00:01:09,037 --> 00:01:14,371
Teacher: Umm. I want you to try writing down these strategies.
You can write “Ask for teacher’s help and then keep going from there.

00:01:14,371 --> 00:01:15,192
[places debriefing behavior form back in front of Kai]

00:01:15,192 --> 00:01:15,465
Kai: Okay.

00:01:15,465 --> 00:01:17,271
Teacher: You can let me know if you need any help.

00:01:17,271 --> 00:01:18,908
Kai: I’m done. [hands debriefing behavior form to teacher]

00:01:18,908 --> 00:01:24,841
Teacher: Alright, Kai. Nice job writing down those strategies we
identified. One more thing we need to talk about. Any time a student

00:01:24,841 --> 00:01:29,881
shows any unsafe behavior in the classroom, like leaving the room
without permission, the teacher needs to call home and write an

00:01:29,881 --> 00:01:35,206
office referral. I just want to make sure you’re aware of that so
it’s not a surprise. Do you have any questions about that?

00:01:35,206 --> 00:01:37,421
Kai: No, but my mom is gonna be mad.

00:01:37,421 --> 00:01:41,107
Teacher: I’ll do my best to make sure your mom understands that
this is all part of the process and that you’re learning how to

00:01:41,107 --> 00:01:44,015
get your needs met. Okay? So, no worries about that.

00:01:44,015 --> 00:01:44,951
Kai: Thanks.

00:01:44,951 --> 00:01:48,196
Teacher: Cool. And what do you think about making some extra time
to practice reading?

00:01:48,196 --> 00:01:49,507
Kai: I’d like that.

00:01:49,507 --> 00:01:55,454
Teacher: That sounds great. Umm, I’ll talk to your mom about that
too, and then really thanks so much for having this conversation.

00:01:55,454 --> 00:01:58,532
I think you did a great job, and I’m really glad you’re in my class.

00:01:58,532 --> 00:01:59,834
Kai: Thanks, Mr. S.
