End of week 2

I have had a great two weeks in the classroom!
My first week was mostly about getting to know the schedule of the day and learning about the students. In the morning while I am there they are learning reading and math. They do a lot of things we learned in ed 310 and 315, like blending sounds together sounding out words and having writing time to make books.
As I was getting to know the students I noticed, quickly, that there are many students who require a lot of attention. About half of the class learns at a lower level than is expected for grade level. There is also a handful of students who have intense behaviors. I can tell it is very hard for my CT to teach while having to worry about these students. It is great, however, to see her make adjustments as needed for the students (low and high achievers).
During my second week I had my first read aloud. It was exciting to see the students get into a book and start to understand what voting is about. Prior to reading my CT told me to ask a lot of questions and allow students to break to talk about the book or I would lose their attention quickly. Overall it went well and I got great feedback from my CT.

Does anyone else class have many students with behavior issues? If so what does your CT do to control the students behaviors?
