Guest guest Posted July 17, 2001 Report Share Posted July 17, 2001 , Your coloring question just made me laugh...On Friday, Shane came home from his reading program (he is in a mainstream summer reading program) With a Black picture (No colors, all Black) and a note accompanied.... " Shane was taken from Speech today, and was VERY aggrivated. He decided to color in all black. " So when I asked him why he was upset, he told me " I got angry, I only got one point, so I had to color in black " They were obviously playing some kinds of game before he left (He's a BIG gameshow buff)...Just had to share, It was so cute...They're expressions are too much sometimes.-Shari Re: OT: Hyperlexia > My son also has Hyperlexia.
