\nI got in trouble in school today. They took away my recess.<\/p>\n
They said it was because I couldn\u2019t sit still, but I was feeling so restless.<\/p>\n
I couldn\u2019t control my body. I wish they\u2019d give me breaks to move.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s so much easier to concentrate when I\u2019m not forced to sit for an hour or two.<\/p>\n
Sometimes directions come so fast, I can\u2019t keep them all straight.<\/p>\n
Giving them one step at a time or writing them down would be great.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s hard for my mind to focus on 30 questions in a row.<\/p>\n
Break my work into smaller parts and watch the answers flow.<\/p>\n
Check on how I\u2019m doing after I complete the first ten.<\/p>\n
While you\u2019re looking at my work can I get up, stretch, or play with my pen?<\/p>\n
My mom told me you\u2019re disappointed with my messy space.<\/p>\n
All my belongings overwhelm me. Teach me how to keep them in the proper place.<\/p>\n
You yelled at me for calling out and I felt embarrassed in front of my friends.<\/p>\n
Sometimes my mouth goes faster than my mind.<\/p>\n
Kindly remind me to raise my hand.<\/p>\n
Please know that these things don\u2019t define me.<\/p>\n
Let me know when I make you proud.<\/p>\n
If you just take the time to notice, you\u2019ll see a bright star, instead of a cloud.<\/p>\n
So the next time that I have trouble following your rules and routines, please don\u2019t take away my recess.<\/p>\n
Burning energy improves my focus and self-esteem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
