Guest guest Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hi! I just wanted to thank you for all the good tips you gave me about getting Victor to draw/write and improve his pronounciation. I showed your answers to his teacher and she has taken this seriously. We are now trying different pens: pencils with soft led, triangular pencils, filt pen (which seems to be the easiest to use). The progress he has made the last two weeks are making my eyes wet: he has drawn a man for the first time in his life, continued with drawing his family (mom, dad and himself), he has written his name with and without support, and his teacher says he works very hard in school. This is probably a combination of maturity and the right support from the teacher and his special needs assistant. We are trying to find ways to strengthen his hands. I found an " anti- stress ball " in the shape of a frog, and he squeezed it a lot the first days. I guess I just have to find new interesting things continously. The teacher will also let a physiotherapeut see him. We'll see what that will lead to. For the pronunciation she wants him to start to practice saying " zero " when counting. So, thank you all for your support! /Camilla, mom of Victor 4y9m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
