Girls Get Graded
Lola and Raina were assessed these past two weeks and we recently received the results.
Lola earned a 100% on her Parents as Teachers developmental screening. Apparently Lola was the first 100% in months for our particular evaluator, which was thrilling for everyone. One week later, Lola had her 2 years check-up with the pediatrician and had another set of developmental screenings. The pediatrician screening requires the parent to answer questions and to stop with a "no" response a total of three times. I had not finished by the time the pediatrician walked in; he glanced over Lola's sheet and responded "You can stop, she's developmentally older than a 3 year-old, so she's okay!" Way to go, Lola!
Raina's screenings were in her classroom and we received teacher reports this past week. All of her teachers complimented her hard-working attitude, her perseverance, her friendliness, and her obedience. Her reading has skyrocketed these last few months, she's much more expressive with her verbal language, and she's incredibly math savvy. Raina was overcome with happiness when we read the comments aloud to her; her mouth opened in a shocked O and she exclaimed "They think I'm a good student!" Of course they do. She works really hard to be a good student, and it's wonderful to see that effort be rewarded. Way to go, Raina!
