It is really hard to choose just one thing! I think the triple entry journal time was great. It was enlightening to share experiences and viewpoints. Kay and I had many experiences in common as far as Intervention goes. We were discussing the statement that every student should be able to some extent, "pull themselves up by the boot straps." My response was that some students don't realize that they have boots on, let alone that the boots have straps. Part of my responsibility as an Intervention Specialist is to help those students become aware of the boots and identify the straps. Then, and only then, can we move on to using the straps for pulling themselves up. To make practical application of this thought, my role is to help the student identify his/her strengths and how they can utilize them to overcome their weaknesses.
