Reflection 25/03/08

Today, a simple newspaper caused the argument of two people.

-Edward and Zi Yang-


What started as playfulness of Ryan and Shan Yao, who were throwing newspaper at each other, escalated into a argument between Edward and Zi Yang. It started like this -

1. Shan Yao and Ryan throw newspapers at each other.
2. Ryan throws the newspaper at Zi Yang
3. Zi Yang throws it back
4. Shan Yao throws it at Zi Yang but hits Jia Hao
5. Jia Hao looks at Zi Yang
6. Zi Yang gets angry and throws another piece at Edward
7. Edward get angry and throws it back
8. Mr Krison comes into class and both of them start shouting and crying

Edward
Angry that Zi Yang threw the newspaper at him for no reason

Zi Yang
Thought that Jia Hao was blaming him when Jia Hao looked at him.(which is not surprising considering Zi Yang's regular treatment of him.)


Me
I should not have stood by and be a bystander. I had no idea that Shan Yao and Ryan throwing newspapers at each other would have caused hurt to Edward and Zi Yang. This incident would not have happened if one of the two things happened-

1.Shan Yao and Ryan stopped before anything happened
2.Zi Yang not get so easily agitated and blaming Edward or vice versa

However this was not the case. As seen last term, Zi Yang requires very little provocation to flare up. Venting his frustration on anything in his rage (including class doors).

What I should have done:
I should have stop Shan Yao and Ryan, therefore not giving Zi Yang the chance to lose his temper.

Basically

Zi Yang was angry for no/little reason(is someone looking at you reason to lose your temper?), took it out on Edward and Edward retaliated.
