We attempted to work on an assignment tasking Ben to identify the qualities a leader possesses and apply it to a zombie apocalypse scenario; however Ben did not wish to engage in the lesson and was resistant to efforts to enlist his participation. He informed me he is taking off this Thursday and Friday, 4/18 and 4/19 to go to NJ for his grandmother's funeral.

Lesson Comments
I subbed for Christy with Ben this morning Monday 4-15-24, from 9 - 9:45. Ben did not want to engage in discussion at all. In fact when I my condolences, he said "Okay, you can help by shutting up." I explained that I would but that wasn't a very kind response. He subsequently apologized but said he's going crazy with all the planning for the funeral.
