Mum's meeting

Mother's meeting last night went well. Among things discussed were ways of keeping toddlers entertained and part of the activities when working with the older children; progess and development in children including the developmental blips around the age of 7.

Nicki and Sally have joined forces for their boys to learn together and they have been looking into explorers. As part of this they had considered the use of latitude and it was suggested they could look at the fascinating story of LONGITUDE. The book of the same title may be available at libriaries.

Strategies for helping children with visual and visial/perseption problems were discussed with ideas for soft ware that may help mentioned as well as ensuring children continue to be supported in finding their own strategies to overcome hurldes.
