LizK Report post Posted March 30, 2007 At the end of each term at school certificates are given out for achievement at the last assembly. Several blue ones and one gold one. Adam got the gold one for his class He was awarded it for trying very hard and for improvement in his handwriting. His handwriting has gone from unrecognisable scribbles and complete disinterest in drawing to wanting to form beautiful letters and drawing smiley faces and clowns in the sapce of a few weeks. Letter formation and handwriting is one of his favourite activities of the week. Can't believe the jump. He wants me to buy an interactive whiteboard and pen for home so he can do his letters over the Easter holidays I was so proud when his LSA told me at home time. The class teacher hadn't told her he was getting the gold certificate to surprise her and she said she wanted to cry when Adam went up to get it. She's nearly as proud of him as I am I think He's been at school exactly a year now. I know you hear a lot about mainstream inclusion not working but at the moment Adam is doing really well, is very happy at school, popular and well supported. So a positive story so far especially when I think back about how hard most of his first term and part of his second term were. His LSA said it's sums up all Adam has achieved this term in so many different ways not just academically but socially, behaviour, concentration, communication. Really pleased and proud of my boy Lx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
