Yesterday was a fun, fun day at my son's Halloween Party at his playschool. I was very late! I had to bring ice cream (it was a pot luck event) and cameras of course. I didn't get to see my son introduce himself boohoo! :-( He said his name and said he's Mr. Greece! It must've been a very adorable thing to see! The parents cheered him on as they know he doesn't speak in class very much (aside from his usual one-two word phrases when the teacher asks him for something). I so hate myself for missing that moment!
I don't have the pictures now but will post as soon as I've downloaded them to my cranky desktop at home.

First Report Card
It was two Saturdays ago when we receive our son's first report card. Nothing eventful really. I got there late, the teacher has already started the conference.
The school being new and all, the teacher had to give a background of the school (well, really it's not a formal school...a teacher quit his job overseas and decided to build his own playschool here). He gave a background of himself as well - his experience, what he did overseas, new things he learned and what drove him to build his own school.
All I can say is, we're very lucky to have a school like this here. It's literally not a school, because it's just a small room with 10 kids and 2 teachers. The special thing though is my son's teacher has been trained how to manage kids with special needs. He's been very patient and very encouraging to both the kids and the parents. He was actually the one who suggested we bring my son for an evaluation. Looking back, I'm very happy we went with his suggestion.
Okay, on with the conference. After all the talk about the school, he gave out report cards for each of the kids. It's nice that he would mention what each kid is good at. He's very encouraging that way.
Here's the final report for our son. I'm very happy (all smiles here) with the result of 2 months of playschool!!! Our son is definitely improving :-)
"He is a sweet and cheerful boy who shows promising learning potential. Though he joined the class late this term, he was able to cope with his peers socially and seemed to enjoy their company. He is currently on behavior modification program and with the recent positive outcome, he will be able to learn and improve behaviorally soon. His interaction with his peers indicates a positive sign of social skill development and eventually will improve his communication skill given the right opportunity and communication situation. He is gradually learning to respond verbally to his teacher and familiar adult; he is learning to express himself verbally as well beginning with asking for what he wants ("I want _____.") It's a joy to teach him and I just home that he continue to improve communicatively and cognitively."
