Lukes rights and needs Assignment HELP
Posted: Fri Sep 30, 2016 5:59 pm
You have just started a new job at Valley View Primary School and you are working in the Year 5 classroom with Julia, the qualified teacher. During the first week you spent time getting to know the routines, children and their families. A young boy by the name of Luke caught your attention. It is hard not to notice Luke as his head is badly scared and little to know hair grows on 75% of his head. You approached Luke numerous times to assist him with an activity and you have noticed he doesn’t talk. When you talked to Julia about Luke she said that a few years ago he and his brother were caught in a house fire, Luke came out badly burnt and his brother died. The fire was an accident and since the family has relocated to Valley View and he started attending the school last year. Julia continued to say that he doesn’t interact with any other children, he rarely speaks and he doesn’t complete any work he is set in full. Julia expresses that at this rate he will be repeating the 5th grade. You asked Julia if she has tried to help the family and she replied that she has tried to talk to Luke and help him with his school work but he just quietly walks away finding something to do where no-one will bother him.
