The workshop with the children went really well for me and Marion. Having a structured plan helped us get through everything that we needed to do.
This workshop showed me how the students respond to our given instructions, and because I am working with a group with a more sever case of PMLD (Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties), I discovered how I should next deliver content to the children for any future workshops with them. Furthermore, it also gave me an idea of what type of activities we should do in our own workshop, in order to allow every student to feel included (with the help of teachers) during the time of the workshop.
The group we've got is quite a difficult group to work with, and despite there only being 2 of us in the group to deliver the workshops, we work well as a team, especially with one of the students in our group, who is able to respond quickly. I  believe that I have the right sensitivity towards the children in order to make sure they do have a fun experience with us.
