Day 3

On Day 3 -

Dom had his usual DT. Words that I heard more clearly were STAR (he was holding a star for a shape-sorter) and he said star very clearly.

The therapist got out flashcards that had images of objects on one side, a letter and the name of the object spelled on the other side. My little guy did not have any interest in the picture, but turned them over and studied the "letter" side. He said "Z", "P" and "B" as well as "D". My favorite thing that happened was he took one card that had a lower-case d and said d, then turned it upside down and said p. He can manipulate the image of the letter to make a different letter.

He still likes to say numbers in order, usually beginning at three, and up to ten, though sometimes he goes to eleven or twelve. However, his words may not be as clear to a stranger as they are to me. For the alphabet, he is beginning to say more of the letters when he recites the alphabet. Often children morph together LMNO, and Dom likes to ignore the grouping.

Let's see what we get tomorrow.
