Preschool Screening
We went to Madison’s preschool screening today. It went well. I really did not plan on sending her to preschool this fall, but I wanted to make sure that she was where she needs to be developmentally. We also learned some thing we need to work on.
First, the kid cannot catch. I did not know this. I guess Bill knew this. So we will need to work on this. She also cannot hop on one foot or skip.
Next, she does not hold a pencil correctly. I did not know this either. However, I know why this is an issue for her. I am right handed. Bill is left handed. See the problem?
She knew the majority of her body parts. The ones she didn’t know were like heel and forehead. Not ones you work on everyday.
She did know her name and that she was a girl. She also knew she was 3. Thank goodness they did not ask where she lives. Her answer to that question is “the beach”. Let me tell you, Chicago is no beach. LOL
She got all of the color except for grey. However, when they asked her to point to something grey she did.
She knew all her shapes. She was also able to take blocks and build them in the patterns they wanted her too.
She didn’t know what she was suppose to do if she broke something. Surprisingly, at home, she knows. LOL She did know if it was dark that you turned the light on.
They also did a hearing test that she passed.
That’s all I can remember right now, but like I said, it went well. I am not too concerned about the things we have to work on.
Happy Mothers Day!!
Happy Mothers Day!!
Let’s see. My morning started with Madison jumping on me tellling me to get up. Her daddy was making his Sunday morning special (french toast). It actually didn’t rain today, so he finally made it outside and mowed the lawn. Then we went to Grandma’s and spent the day over there. Bill got me a card from Madison. That’s it. And for Bill, that’s good. I usually don’t even get a card. When he does good, it usually does good. When he does bad, I don’t get anything at all, so I can’t be too picky. As I am typing this though, my wrist is breaking out in hives. Not good. Now I have to figure out what I touched to cause it.
I finally finished Madison’s new bedroom. Hopefully, I can get some new pictures on here with out, so you all can see my hard work. It’s purple. I did a stencil border in the middle of the room and up toward the ceiling also. On the bottom portion of the room, I did paint stamps that were in the shapes of flowers and butterflies. On the top portion, I put up Tinkerbell stickers. It looks great. We moved Madison in there on Friday night, and its been interesting ever since. She’s not liking being in the room alone.
Ok, I’ve gotta go find some Sudafed before I go crazy itching. See ya later.
