Wrapping my buddie

I am in a program called Berea Buddies. this program is about spending time with a kid, you spend about 2 hours with your buddie doing things like playing or swimming. on Halloween well on the week of Halloween there was a party where the kids had a chance to dress up (some of you might have seen them walking around with their customs)and to make cookies and color sheets about Halloween. there was also a contests about wrapping one of us in toilet paper, my buddie and i decided that she was going to be the one that was going to be wrapped. so i stared wrapping her and since it was a contest about who finished first, i went as fast as i could, but then i found out that the toilet paper ripped apart because i was putting too much force. so i decided to go slower and the toilet paper did not ripped anymore.

Trial and error was one of the first things that i learned here because even though i tried a lot of times the paper ripped apart, after watching how others were doing theirs, i saw that they were going slow. i decided to also try to go slow ans it worked because my paper did not ripped anymore.

as a future teacher this relates to me because in order to make a my students know each other a little more, i have to try many ways for them to talk to each other. also in order to help them understand, i have to find ways in which to help them until i have the right way of teaching them, even though it will be hard because not all of them learn in the same way.
