First Aid Case Study

Case 1

Minor abrasion on arm and knee.

"ahh~~hh~hhhh~ahhh~~"
"Can you stop crying so loudly!?"


Case 2

Big bump on forehead. And I mean really big.

"...." (Tears rolling down cheeks. Silently. Short little fingers held 2 big ice packs wrapped with tissue paper against forehead. Standing beside him is another boy, I assumed, his friend, both P1.)
"How did you get this?"
"I ran and bumped into somebodyyyy..."
"Then what about that person?"
"..."
"So... i guess he's okay?"
Boy nods.
(Trying terribly hard to hold my laughter, i took the ice packs from him and changed the position. Sheds of tissue paper fell and dangled from the ice packs, giving the boy a pirate look. I patted his head and smiled to his friend beside him.)
"The bump has gone down!" (His friend reported helpfully.)
"Oh, really?"
"Yea... Anyway, I used to have bumps all over my head too!" (his hands ran thru his hair and then shot out to touch every part of his head to make it convincing.)
"Haha! So which class are you from?"
"1B,"
"Both of you?"
"No, he's from 1B," (poking air in an in/out motion with his finger at the injured boy.)
"...and you?"
"3H,"
"You? 3H?!"
"Hee.. ya."
"... You're his brother?"
"Yea." (and he nodded confidently. So cute. And did he say he's got bumps all over his head?)
"Do you want to go home?"
"Noooo..."
"Are you sure?"
"yeeees..."
"Okay brother pls call your mom and tell her he doesn't want to go home. The bump is pretty BIG and it won't go down completely anyway. Pls tell your mom that too."

10mins later, 3H carried 1B's bag down to the office.
"Ohh. So you are going home huh?"
"Yea..."
"... ookay."


Height & Weight Case Study 1

Outside 1B’s classroom. Class getting ready for PE lesson.

"Can I see Amanda and Samuel?"
"Ohh! Sure! Pls help yourself! I don’t know their names!"
-.- "... Okay. By the way, are they going to bring their bags for PE?"
"I don’t know! This is my first time teaching! Anyway, where do they usually have PE?"
-.- "... You can have your lessons at the quadrangle, the basketball court, or behind the netball court."
"Oh! Thank you!"
"I’ll bring them to you later."
"Sure!"

"Teacher… Measure height and weight ah?"
"Yaaa."
"Just now we…. blah blah… " (too noisy can’t really catch…)
"Okay, we are going upstairs."
"Upstairs ah? Teacher we going upstairs ah?"
"Yaaa."
"Measure our height and weight upstairs?"
"Yaaa. Aren’t your bags heavy?"
"No."
"Okay."

After everything…
"Let’s get you back to your PE class.."
"Wait! We have to put our bags in class first!!"
WHAT!!! -.-
And there we go… back to the same spot where I picked them… where they could have put down their bags long ago. -.-
