YES!!!!


Recieved the call from YMCA and Nathan and his worker is accepted at their Preschool program. I'll be going in on Tuesday morning for registration and tour. It's a little more out of my way, 4 mornings a week Mon - Thurs. His worker will be coming over 2 afternoons a week and a social skills group at the center 1 afternoon a week.

His articulation of 's' sounds are WOW!! Even being carried over into everyday speech, with simple reminders of repeating the word the right way, to emphasize the target sound, he has come along way. Something clicked in his perspective, visual field and now understands the concept. A game we play is sitting back to back.. I say, I see.. a plant.. he can't see it cause he isn't facing that way.

Multi-step instructions are currently on a 3-step within the room and progress is being made. We try to make this fun and silly.. go get a car, bring it over to the table and put it in your alphabet box. Before.. he refused to do that as his alphabet box was JUST for his letters. Everything has its spot.. right?? He's still rigid about somethings.. his round container of crayons cannot go on a rectangle shelf which holds his markers and pencil crayons, only his write and wipe books can go there.. his crayons currently have no home, and there fore are constantly being moved from table to table.

Things are on track again after a week of alot of phone calls. I still have to call his old daycare to let them know that Nathan won't be attending their preschool this year. I'll do that on Monday.
