That has been on my mind lately. I feel like a lot of Early Intervention was spoon feeding Goldie information and never really letting her figure out things on her own. I've now started admonishing her siblings for showing how to use a toy. I really want to see her figure things out for herself. It's hard, sometimes I have to walk away.Brandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01704697731192764110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6913521903629178880.post-78521363876328713202010-10-03T08:50:33.148-04:002010-10-03T08:50:33.148-04:00Wow.

I wish I lived closer to you because I think what you share in your writing has inspired me ten-fold.<br /><br />I agree with you about how the simple joy of reading and/or game playing inspires learning. Those are my own memorable memories as a child -- few classroom memories.<br /><br />I would be interested in your views about the suggestion that people with Ds who struggle with printing/writing focus more (or only) on using a computer keypad to convey their thoughts and ideas.<br /><br />At five, Gabe is showing a keen interest in the computer, but of course we are working diligently on printing. However, we have a friend who is 13 (with Ds) and it is much more gratifying for him to convey his thoughts through the computer instead of writing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6913521903629178880.post-60057819637186525632010-10-02T20:27:00.813-04:002010-10-02T20:27:00.813-04:00It makes me happy to see you using some of the sam...It makes me happy to see you using some of the same materials we are using. I started the First Language Lessons with my older two and Geneva has been listening to an audio recording of Little House in the Big Woods every chance she gets. As we're getting the homeschool ball rolling, in the back of my mind I wonder, "Will this work for Magdalena?" I guess we'll see when we get there, but it's encouraging to hear some of the specific things you're doing with Hannah. <br />Thank you in advance for doing 31 for 21! I know I'll learn a lot over here.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08448914566341927497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6913521903629178880.post-42575382958299446922010-10-02T10:24:38.990-04:002010-10-02T10:24:38.990-04:00Thank you!

Sometimes I think of her as super-girl (which she is!) and want to despair with my little guy who got such a rough start in life. It encourages me to see that sometimes she doesn't get things, but later does (or may never, if they aren't important to life, like the music notes.)Justinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04628086750403852099noreply@blogger.com
