I have a little boy in my class, C. When he came to me in September I was told he was very quiet - and so he turned out to be. He never talked to adults, unless to answer a direct question, and he seldom talked to the other children. He seemed so sad, he often cried for no reason. I was terribly worried about him.
But in the last few weeks, what a change! He is chatting away and he is smiling all the time. Yesterday he was sat at a table working with a partner, and they were both giggling, I went over and they shared the joke (one of those that only 5 year olds find funny - but I laughed anyway).
Moments like that - I love teaching.
