Success!

So I mentioned earlier that I have a student who has a major anger problem. 

She gets upset realllllly easily. Like for no reason at all.

I've been trying to get to know her personally and build a connection beyond the school walls.

During my full week of teaching (which I still haven't posted about...sorry) I made a breakthrough.

We both like One Direction!!

{Judge me. I give you permission.}

I was so excited to have something in common with her. And she was excited, too.

She brings it up almost every day.

It's amazing that something so small makes such a huge difference.

Who would have thought a boy band would unite us.

Crazy stuff.

We went on a field trip yesterday and she practically begged to sit beside me.

It was so fun talking to her outside of the classroom.

She really is such a sweet girl.

I've learned a lot this semester so far.

And I only have two weeks left (holla!!!!).

But my absolute favorite thing has been winning this girl over.

Hope y'all are having a wonderful week. It's almost the weekend!!
