disturbing...

last week on thursday at my practicum school, the students were given the opportunity to buy snow cones for a dollar and popcorn for fifty cents. noticing in my class, that the 6 students with iep's didn't get neither a snow cone or a popcorn i became disturbed. i don't care if it had been a student without an iep, my point is that i believe in that if one student gets it then all of them should get it!! this was not any type of reward, it was just some type of thing to get money. being the person that i am and what i believe in, i got to my car searching for change and buy what i can. i ended up splitting the snow cones and popcorn between the six and they were so excited. also what was also disturbing was that the teachers got their snow cones and popcorn for free!! how can any adult enjoy something while a child is not able to enjoy it! i guess it's just how i was raised!! i know my mother always put us first or in any case any child first before herself and that's exactly how i feel. i didn't even have the desire to eat my snow cone or popcorn because i wanted to make sure that every child got to have some, so i gave mine away. one of the teachers selling these items asked me what was going on and i expressed to her how i felt and she went completely blank and another whispered to me that she agreed with me!! i don't know, maybe it's just me, but i was very disturbed by this situation!!
