Current Services

Isaiah's tranistion back into day care has come with its share of challenges. Numbers are down, so he no longer has two teachers in the room. With only one teacher, he doesn't receive the same level of support from the day care that he had last year. It's only natural that he be expected to "blend in" with the rest of the class, but still frustrating, as he does need more support and assistance than some of the others in his room.

We are excited for the return of Isaiah Early Childhood and Speech Itinerant Teachers. Mrs. Barb will be with him primarily on Wednesdays and Fridays from 8:30-9:30. Mrs. Marion will work on speech for one hour each week. I haven't yet heard when she will go in to work with Isaiah, but we're hoping for twice each week for 30 minutes at a time. (I'm a fan of more frequent sessions for shorter blocks of time. Toddler attention span and all...)

To break down Isaiah's curret services...well, his services that will be up and running again with the return of the school year:

• 2 hours/week - Early Childhood Special Education
• 1 hour/week - Speech & Language
• 1 hour/week - Play & Behavior/Social Skills Therapy with a private counselor in Green Bay (Mr. James)
• 1 hour/week - Floortime Therapy

5 hours/week is a great start!
