All in all the school year has been going good . . . until last week that is. It was just an overall rough week.
I need to think of a name for when Gregory acts "crazy". I often refer to it as "crazy" Gregory but thats not nice. I dunno . . . its his alter ego . . . maybe instead of Gregory he is being, "Senor Loco"???? I'm game for any suggestions.
Anways, what does "Senor Loco" look like? I can't even describe it . . . its just off, weird, intense, agressive, sensitive, snotty, disrespectful, not obedient, hard, difficult, cranky.
Sounds fun, huh?
Whats going on?
I"m not really sure . . . . mommy brain of mine cannot figure it out. I think its one or many of the following . . . daddy being out of town, school being hard, not having OT, friends not being nice at school, the heat, his lack of vocabulary . . .
I don't know.
I do know at school (so at home too) they are working on the following goals for Gregory:
~Write his name
~Hold a pencil the right way
~Respond appropriately to situations
~Two way conversations
~Articulation
~Colors
~Count to 20 (he can now do 25)
~Shapes
~Identify 15 of the 26 letters
~Self awareness
~Math language
I visited my son's school in session. I popped there unexpectedly in the middle of the day. Every parent should do this. They had some structured learning but also a lot of playing which I think is the best way for children to learn.
