Mercer did a good job typing all credentials in to the computer and working with a mouse. He now has his email set up and can call through Teams. He is a nice young man with a great deal of potential!

Dutch was resistant to presenting his business presentation using PowerPoint. I am still working on getting him mentally prepared to do it next week in front of others.

Mercer was fairly quiet and appeared to be a bit depressed. His responses to all of my questions lacked any intensity or enthusiasm. That said, he was extremely polite and well behaved. I worked on establishing a rapport with him to facilitate successful future sessions. His email and access to Office 365 apparently was not yet set up so we just discussed doing it in the next class.

I didn't realize I was subbing for Ms. Debbie until half way through the class when Elise brought a folder to me. I didn't see the assigned reading page until it was late in the session so I had Kellan type a letter to Ms. Debbie to combine computer skills with language arts.

We worked through office 365 and Kellan logged in to his files and created a new PowerPoint story. He was mostly cooperative but at times wandered off making noises.

After about 20 minutes, Christopher walked out of the African American celebration and went to work on one of the computers in the main room. I followed and helped him work on his picture for about 20 minutes. Then he went back to see the remainder of the presentation.

I'm not sure why, but Sebastian seems resistant to working on the computer with me. During our class he would get up and walk away, saying he wants to go outside or go play with Christopher or talk to Judie. I'm not sure why it does not appear to work but I would suggest avoiding having us together going forward. I work well with other young students (Kellan, Jonathan, Kip) but it does not appear that I can help Sebastian.

Kellan was acting very tired and would not sit up in his chair. We worked on the science lab computer today and Cabo was in there with Dan at the same time. Cabo and Kellan made negative comments toward each other so I asked him to stop. It was clear from the back and forth that this started before today.

Christopher seemed tired but was receptive to creating a story in Paint and creating a presentation in PowerPoint. We accomplished a four slide presentation during the hour.

Kellan is often resistant to ideas or developing plans to do something new. I am getting him to decide the content to some degree in order to motivate his interest.
